Representation of sonographic learning objectives in the NKLM 2.0

Question The integration of ultrasound education in medical studies is implemented very heterogeneously across Germany. In the National Competence-Based Learning Objectives Catalogue for Medicine (NKLM) of 2015, sonography was already integrated, predominantly as a knowledge competence and with later integration in the study. On April 27th, 2021, the new NKLM 2.0 was published with extensive revisions of the sonographic learning objectives [1].
