Mitral Valve Imaging | Philips Healthcare Education

What you will learn

Course description:

This one-day course is designed to provide heart surgeons, interventional cardiologists, non-interventional cardiologists, cardiac anesthesiologists, and cardiac sonographers with the fundamental skills required to obtain and analyze high-quality Live 3D TEE images. The course focuses on image acquisition and analysis needed for interventional Mitral Valve procedures. The small class size of this course enables participants to interact with the instructor closely and to receive individual hands-on training, with particular emphasis on mitral valve apparatus analysis. Educational material will be presented through lectures, case presentations, and informal discussions. It will thoroughly introduce the fundamentals of Live 3D TEE and its practical use for mitral valve procedures.

George Gellert, MD, will teach this program. Medical Director, Interventional Echocardiography, Structural Heart Program, Cavanagh Heart Center, Banner Good Samaritan Medical Center, Phoenix, Arizona, and Associate Clinical Professor, Department of Anesthesiology, Creighton University School of Medicine.

Audience

Audience statement:

This program requires a thorough knowledge and understanding of 2D TEE and basic system instrumentation. It does not offer hands-on system acquisition. Consider the Advanced System Training series for acquisition training.

Course level:

Advanced

Prerequisite skills:

Experience with system instrumentation and 2D TEE is required for all participants in this program. Introduction to the basic use of 3D TTE is suggested for all attendees but is not a requirement. We recommend the Advanced System Training 3D course for Live 3D imaging and instrumentation.
