We invite you to join us for our upcoming webinar, Ultrasound Evaluation of Acute Pelvic Pain, presented by Mani Montazemi on Thursday, July 30, at 7:00 PM EST via Zoom. We are grateful for the continued support of our sponsors and would like to extend a special thank you to Esaote for sponsoring this educational event.

In June, MSS partnered with Holland Hospital to host a 5-CME Venous Insufficiency Hands-On Scanning Workshop led by Liz Lawrence. The event brought sonographers together for a day of education, networking, and practical scanning experience. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, and it reinforced the value of creating opportunities for sonographers to learn from one another in a collaborative environment. We extend our sincere appreciation to Holland Hospital, Liz Lawrence, our volunteers, and all attendees who helped make the workshop a success.

As we look ahead, MSS remains committed to offering both virtual and hands-on educational experiences. If you or your facility are interested in partnering with MSS to host a future educational event, workshop, or CME opportunity, we would love to hear from you. Please reach out to discuss ideas, topics, or areas of interest.

We are also excited to welcome our incoming board. We encourage you to take a moment to learn more about our board members by viewing their biographies at the "about us" tab on the site. Their dedication and enthusiasm will help guide MSS into its next chapter.

At the same time, we continue our search for a President to lead the organization, as well as advisors and committee members who are passionate about advancing the profession. MSS is a volunteer-driven organization, and our success depends on the engagement and expertise of sonographers across Michigan. If you have ever considered becoming involved, now is an excellent time to join us.

Finally, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to our outgoing board members. Over the past two years, they have successfully guided MSS through a period of significant change, including the celebration of the Society’s 50th anniversary. Through their leadership, we have modernized our organization, refreshed our brand, expanded membership engagement, and increased participation following the challenges of the COVID era. Their contributions have laid a strong foundation for the future of MSS.

Thank you for your continued support of the Michigan Sonographers Society. We look forward to learning, growing, and advancing our profession together.

Warm regards,

Erica Wiencek, BS, RDMS, RVT

Interim President, Michigan Sonographers’ Society
