Ultrasound skills—technical and interpretive—are essential to the practice of obstetrics and gynecology. The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education provides guidance, though limited, on what an obstetrics and gynecology residency ultrasonography program curriculum should include. A review of several educational institutions’ approaches to the ultrasonography curriculum is presented. A detailed discussion of the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, Paul L Foster School of Medicine, obstetrics and gynecology residency ultrasonography program curriculum is provided for additional consideration.
