The 2021 Lancet Commission on Diagnostics Report and the 2023 World Health Assembly Resolution on Diagnostics have identified the critical need for improved diagnostic services as essential to achieving WHO's Universal Health Coverage and Health for All.
This is particularly relevant in Ghana, where the scarcity of radiologists and sonographers impedes access to affordable medical imaging, critically in emergency and rural settings.
The Lancet's recommendation to expand Point of Care Ultrasound (POCUS) usage aims to address this diagnostic gap. POCUS, performed bedside by non-specialist health workers, was notably underutilized in Ghana prior to our initiative, with a lack of expert trainers, structured teaching, and practice guidelines.
Addressing this, our project aims to enhance POCUS training, research, and leadership to fulfill the urgent need for this life-saving diagnostic tool.
