Alison Deslandes

I am dedicated, hard working specialist obstetric and gynaecological sonographer, researcher and board director from Adelaide, Australia.

I am currently undertaking a Masters by Research focusing on the accuracy of transvaginal ultrasound in the diagnosis of endometriosis when performed by sonographers. Click the link above to see my latest publication.

I am passionate about sonographer education and professional development. I feel professional development is paramount to ensuring sonographers perform to their optimal ability within the healthcare sector. I am a regular attendee at local and national meetings as well as a regular presenter at national and international meetings.

Through my work as a board director, I've acquired skills relating to strategic planning, risk management, financial reporting, management and corporate governance. I'm both meticulous in my attention to detail and dedicated and consciousness in my review of evidence to ensure all decisions made at board level are in line with the organisational objective and in the interest of relevant stakeholders.

I have also acquired a wealth of skills through my vast and expansive volunteer work over the years ranging from marketing, social media, peer review and education.

When I'm not working or researching I enjoy reading novels, camping and playing with my two young children.
