The Ultrasound Diagnostic and Educational Center (UDEC) was established thanks
to the efforts of the Jefferson Ultrasound Research and Education Center, the
Acuson Corporation and the Open Society Institute.
Since 1998 UDEC is part of National Medical University in Kiev. It's location
at Central Hospital in Kiev allows the Center to provide consultative support
to various departments of the Hospital, including the departments of gynecology,
urology, surgery, and therapy.

clinical and study support facilities, including video based facilities for
