European Echocardiography Course
The next European Echocardiography Course will be held in Copenhagen from September 11th – 13th 2024.
The European Echocardiography Course on Congenital Heart Disease provides an in-depth review of:
- Cardiac morphology of the most common congenital heart defects illustrated on human specimens.
- Echocardiographic-morphologic correlations to provide better understanding of three-dimensional cardiac anatomy as imaged by 2-D and 3-D echocardiography.
- Surgical procedures are explained by congenital cardiac surgeons Echocardiography in Congenital Heart Disease and illustrated by surgical videos.
- Case-based interactive teaching on how echocardiography is used in surgical decision-making
The course is aimed at Paediatric Cardiologists, Adult Congenital Heart Disease Specialists and Echocardiography Technicians sonographers working with congenital heart disease patients.
The program strongly builds on the side-by-side comparison of morphology and imaging and discusses the major abnormalities found in clinical practice. Faculty consist of world renown paediatric cardiologists, cardiac morphologists, and congenital heart surgeons.
The course is the ideal preparation for the accreditation exam for 'Congenital Heart Disease Echocardiography' organised by the EACVI/AEPC.
Hoping to meet all interested colleagues on the next Course.
With kind regards,
Jan Marek, Folkert Meijboom and Luc Mertens
