Topic
Echocardiography plays a pivotal role in the examination of the heart. Expert cardiac opinion or therapeutic decision cannot be made without this examination. During the course we demonstrate the indications of this imaging technique as well as the way of the image making such as the echocardiography axes and parameters. Different real cardiac cases, like the most frequent cardiac pathologies will be shown during the practice oriented lessons. During the practice lessons students will have the chance to try the image making on their own.
