Abstract: Simulation-based ultrasound training provides repeated practice and ly feedback, which has a great advantage in improving the safety of the patient, the professional operation skill and confidence of the trainees, and the standardization of education. In this review, we discuss the classification of currently available simulation-based medical education for ultrasound teaching, its role in “diagnostic” and “interventional” ultrasound practice training, as well as current deficits pertain to the validation process.

Key words: simulation-based education, ultrasound practice training
