After much consideration, the decision has been made to transition the live 2020 ASCeXAM/ReASCE Review Course to be offered online as a Virtual Experience.
This course will be available starting on Saturday, May 9 and will offer access to recordings and PDF slides of all scheduled presentations, including physics. This is not a live streamed event.
There will be a live Q&A webinar on Saturday, August 22 and Sunday, August 23, from 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM Eastern Time, where faculty will answer questions from registrants. Questions can be submitted in advance using a form that will be emailed to all registrants when the recordings are available. Faculty will also answer questions submitted live during the event. The live Q&A sessions will be recorded and available to registrants in the virtual library that you will have access to for three years.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this course, participants should be better able to:
- Explain the essential physical principles of cardiac ultrasound.
- Recognize common ultrasound artifacts and their genesis.
- Estimate systolic function using standard M-mode and 2D echocardiography, as well as newer modalities such as strain imaging and 3D echocardiography.
- Identify and quantitate valvular heart disease severity.
- Describe the application of Doppler in the assessment of hemodynamics and diastolic function.
- Perform clinically relevant calculations of valve areas and intracardiac pressures.
- Explain proven techniques for interpreting stress echocardiographic examinations.
- Differentiate features of cardiac tamponade, constrictive pericarditis and restrictive cardiomyopathy.
- List appropriate applications of echocardiography.
- Recognize newer applications of echocardiography such as myocardial contrast.
