After graduating from the Medical School Program in 1997, Daniela became fascinated with the field of Diagnostic Imaging and accepted an invitation from one of the leading USA ultrasound institutes to enrol for a Diagnostic Medical Ultrasound Diploma, which she mastered in 2001. Seeking to expand her knowledge and skills, Daniela completed extensive formal ultrasound training and internships in the most renowned USA university hospitals and trauma centres in NY and NJ. Being exposed to diverse pathologies and a multitude of clinical scenarios, Daniela has built a solid core of medical knowledge and experience in her field of interest.
On obtaining the degree in Medical Ultrasound, Daniela was offered a teaching job position at the Institute to teach diagnostic ultrasound to postgraduate students, with concurrent appointments in university hospitals such as
Robert Wood-Johnson Trauma Center. She worked closely with vascular surgeons and university medical professors, assisting them with ultrasound in the operating theatre on a broad range of interventional procedures.
From 2003 to 2011, while in the USA, Daniela completed the following ARDMS (American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonography) ultrasound specialities: Obstetrics (2004), Abdomen and Small Parts (2005), Breast (2008) and Vascular (2010).
Daniela relocated to England in 2011 to join the ultrasound team at Royal Free Hospital NHS Trust, where she performed and reported on the
full range of ultrasound scans including Abdomen, Pelvis, Obstetrics, Small Parts, Breast, Vascular and Musculoskeletal in her capacity as Advanced Practitioner Sonographer.
Daniela obtained a Master’s in Medical Ultrasound from
Bournemouth University in 2014, earning more than 180 credits in Musculoskeletal Ultrasound and MSK injections alone.
Daniela has been a member of
ARDMS (American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonography) since 2003 and of
APCA (Alliance of Physician Certification & Advancement) since 2015. Since her arrival in the UK in 2011, Daniela has been a member of
