Australian Institute of Ultrasound

Happy Mother’s Day from AIU.

Today, we recognise the mothers, mums-to-be and maternal health professionals in our community.

Through our obstetric ultrasound training, we’re proud to support clinicians as they build practical skills for caring for mothers and babies.

We’re also grateful to our pregnant volunteers, whose time helps create real learning experiences for clinicians developing their ultrasound skills.

To all the mums and mums-to-be in our AIU community, we wish you a very happy Mother’s Day.
