Advanced Structural Heart Imaging: Hands-On Training for Multidisciplinary Teams
Non-CME Symposium Hosted by Philips
Faculty: Nadira Hamid, MD, Edwin Ho, MD, G. Burkhard Mackensen, MD, PhD, Matthew Price, MD, Gagan Singh, MD, MS
Join us for an immersive half-day medical education program designed specifically for multidisciplinary structural heart teams. This 4-hour course offers a unique opportunity to learn contemporary structural heart imaging techniques from an expert panel of faculty. Participants will engage in hands-on rotations focusing on 3D ICE (intracardiac echo) and MPR using the latest Philips EPIQ ultrasound equipment. These rotations are dedicated to advanced imaging for LAAO (Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion) and Tricuspid. Additionally, the course will feature specific training from the faculty on emerging consensus approach to imaging techniques and workflows. Enhance your skills and knowledge in structural heart imaging through practical, interactive sessions and expert-led discussions!
