He called it Education for the Sonographic Professional otherwise known as ESP Ultrasound.
Dr. Edelman has retired from ESP but is known throughout the Physics world for his textbook Understanding Ultrasound Physics. Some students affectionately call it the “Green Book.” Others call it the “sonographers bible.” As the field of ultrasound expanded, so did the courses offered by ESP. Today ESP has a prestigious lineup of experts teaching 10 different ultrasound courses. ESP also offers CMEs for professionals needing to keep their credentials.
