Description
Advanced Echo 2024
Advanced Echo 2024 features the latest education on established and emerging cardiovascular ultrasound technologies. Combining the course directorships of Echo Hawaii and State-of-the-Art Echocardiography, expert faculty discuss state-of-the-art technologies with a particular focus on how they can be effectively be applied in the clinical setting. Case-based approaches are used to discuss new and established applications of echocardiography for diagnosis and guiding management in patients with a broad array of cardiovascular conditions.

Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this program, participants will be better able to:
- Integrate echocardiographic information in clinical decision making.
- Assess ventricular and valvular function using Doppler hemodynamics.
- Describe Doppler assessment of diastolic function/dysfunction.
- Explain new advances in the echocardiographic assessment of left and right ventricular function, including strain and 3D.
- Integrate echocardiographic assessment of cardiomyopathies and systemic diseases in patient management.
- Define clinical uses of TEE and 3D echocardiography.
- Recognize how echocardiography is used to help manage patients with ischemic heart disease.
- Recognize the role of echo contrast and be able to incorporate its use in the echo laboratory.
- Integrate echo information in the management of complex valvular heart disease.
