Unfortunately, due to the extreme weather conditions and flooding, ASUM decided to postpone the Surf Sand & Soundwaves event in Kingscliff. We will keep you updated on the new date when it becomes available.

On ASUM’s 10-year anniversary, Canon Medical is proud to offer a dedicated full-day program on excellence in paediatric ultrasound where you will learn from the best in paediatric ultrasound scanning through an interactive lecture.
