 hocardiography has come a long way from its humble beginnings. The add
 ition of M-Mode, two dimensional real time imaging, Doppler, color flo
 w, and now three and four dimensional imaging have all changed the way
  echocardiography is practiced. Diastolic assessment and changes in no
 menclature have even changed the language of Echo. This eight day cour
 se covers echo from M-mode to 3-D. After completion you will be confid
 ent in choosing the proper tools to assess common pathological conditi
 ons such as valvular abnormalities, systolic, and diastolic function. 
 Development of a consistent protocol is mandatory to avoid missing pat
 hology and our scan lab with state of the art equipment and low studen
 t instructor ratios will give you the time and opportunity to practice
 , practice, practice. Objectives At the completion of this course, the
  learner will be able to: • Explain normal cardiovascular anatomy an
 d physiology and relate cardiovascular functions to disease. • Discu
 ss cardiac mechanical and electrical physiology and relate this inform
 ation from the echocardiogram to the basic electrocardiogram. • Oper
 ate several ultrasound units for the production of 2-D, M-Mode and Dop
 pler echocardiograms. • Perform an echocardiogram using the protocol
  defined by the American Society of Echocardiography, i.e. parasternal
  long and short, apical 2, 4, 5, and long, and subcostal long and shor
 t axis. • Quantitatively analyze the results of 2-D and M-Mode echoc
 ardiogram. • Analyze the results of an echocardiogram for normal ver
 sus abnormal findings. • Analyze echocardiograms for common cardiac 
 pathologies. • Identify and resolve basic technique and equipment pr
 oblems that interfere with the quality of studies. • Define the clin
 ical responsibilities of an echocardiographer who is confronted with s
 ignificant clinical findings. • Conduct a basic patient history and 
 assessment that relates to interpretation of echocardiographic finding
 s. • Operate several cardiac ultrasound instruments and apply variou
 s types of cardiac Doppler; pulse wave, continuous wave and color flow
  mapping. * Describe the normal cardiovascular blood flow through the 
 heart and the great vessels as defined by Doppler velocity measurement
 s and profiles. • Quantify Doppler findings in echocardiography. •
  Analyze common cardiac Doppler findings for common cardiac pathologie
 s. • Identify the diseases or cardiac pathologies that require defin
 ition by Doppler examination. Course Topics • Ultrasound Physics and
  Instrumentation • Cardiovascular Anatomy and Physiology and EKG •
  Equipment Orientation • Anatomy and Physiology and Cardiac Catheter
 ization • 2-D Imaging • M-Mode • Acquired Heart Disease • Cong
 enital Heart Disease • Doppler Instrumentation and Controls • Dopp
