VITAL is a Radiology Across Borders (RAB) project that provides focussed education to upskill sonographers and clinicians providing ultrasound services in developing nations. Our main aim is to provide education in obstetrics, gynaecology, and breast ultrasound to reduce inequity globally in health services.
The RAB VITAL Project was launched in 2017 with the aim to give didactic lectures and hands-on training in obstetric, gynaecology and breast ultrasound to our partner nations. Teams of sonographers travelled to Samoa in 2017, Fiji in 2018 and Vietnam in 2019.
Future trips were planned for 2020 but were delayed because of COVID-19 travel restrictions. In the meantime we continued our commitment to education and training by introducing the Virtual VITAL Conferences.
The Virtual VITAL Conferences in 2021 and 2022 were such a success that even though we are planning two in-country visits to Cook Isands and Solomon Isands this year we are keeping the Virtual VITAL Conference format for those countries who will miss out.
