This course covers both ultrasound theory and practical sessions of the basic cardiac ultrasound & includes:

  • Optimal machine settings and patient preparation 
  • M-Mode and B-Mode two dimensional examinations 
  • Doppler – what it means and how to use it in practice

  • Useful measures in the myocardium for disease

 

This Fast-Track weekend is aimed at building skills – with the morning sessions spent on theory and afternoon sessions on practical scanning.

Course Highlights

  • Limited numbers allow for plenty of hands-on scanning & informal Q&A sessions
