Mark A. Magee, MD

Treasurer Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University

Biography

I am honored to accept a nomination for the position of treasurer on the AEUS Executive Committee. If elected, I look forward to the opportunity to support the academic mission of the AEUS and its members.

Having completed residency training in Emergency Medicine at Temple University Hospital in 2017, I had the great fortune of training in Advanced Emergency Medicine Ultrasonography at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. There I honed my ultrasound skills while developing a love for ultrasound education, lecturing and providing hands-on education to a broad array of learners including students in the medical school, nurses in our ED, and residents and faculty throughout the health system. It was this interest in education that drove my desire to become involved at a more national level, with lectures and scientific presentations delivered at annual meetings for AAEM, ACEP and AIUM, and assisting as a judge at SonoGames.

In 2018, I was elected to serve as the President of the Emergency Ultrasound Section of the American Academy of Emergency Medicine, and joined the Board of Directors for SCUF later that year. It was my great honor to work with these groups during the final year of our application to the ABMS and the early development of the certification process for the FPD in AEMUS. The time I spent with AAEM and SCUF highlighted the importance that our national boards serve in the development of AEMUS and now drive my desire to re-engage at the national level with AEUS.

If elected, I look forward to supporting the mission of AEUS in fostering educational and research opportunities in emergency ultrasound for our members. I hope to assist in the continued success of SonoGames and provide opportunities to highlight the achievements of our members and support the development of the many rising stars within the field. Finally, I look forward to the opportunity to work collaboratively with partnering boards in Emergency Medicine to continue to progress the field of Advanced Emergency Ultrasonography for the benefit of our patients.
