Register What you will learn Course description: Improvements in Doppler and in overall imaging allow visualization never before realized. This program will cover assessment of all four cardiac valves for both stenosis and regurgitation. Examples of correct and incorrect measurements will be given as well as explanation of what comprises a good quality measurement and why another is poor. Educational material will be presented in the form of lectures and case presentations. This one-day program follows the recommendation for valvular quantification as outlined in various standards and guidelines. Hemodynamic function as well as structural anatomy will be reviewed. This course is intended for anyone who requires additional ultrasound knowledge. Prerequisite skills: A thorough knowledge and understanding of 2D echocardiography and system instrumentation is recommended for this program. Currency: USDCourse objectives: Upon completion of this program, attendees should be able to: Describe the basics of image optimization Discuss structural features of the Aortic, Pulmonic, Tricuspid and Mitral valves Explain common abnormalities of all cardiac valves Identify methods for quantification of valvular stenosis Identify methods for quantification of valvular regurgitation Discuss the effects of multiple lesions on valvular assessment Course details Course Code: CV102Delivery method: Instructor-led Language: English Duration: 1 Day Course instructor(s) : Philips InstructorCourse disclaimer: The content is for information and education only.
