Resumen:
This positioning document describes the most important aspects of clinical ultrasonography in the internal medicine setting, from its fundamental indications to the recommended training period. There is no question as to the considerable usefulness of this tool in the standard clinical practice of internists in numerous clinical scenarios and settings (emergencies, hospital ward, general and specific consultations and home care). Ultrasonography has a relevant impact on the practitioner's ability to resolve issues, increasing diagnostic reliability and safety and providing important information on the prognosis and progression. In recent years, ultrasonography has been incorporated as a tool in undergraduate teaching, with excellent results. The use of ultrasonography needs to be widespread. To accomplish this, we must encourage structured training and the acquisition of equipment. This document was developed by the Clinical Ultrasonography Workgroup and endorsed by the Spanish Society of Internal Medicine.
