3D TTE and TEE practical course with live scanning and hands-on sessions on workstations

 

Who Should Attend?

This activity is designed for cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, interventional cardiologists, anesthesiologists, sonographers, who require advanced training in 3D TTE and 3D TEE, and for those who want to understand the added value of 3D echocardiography to understand the anatomy and pathophysiology in various heart diseases and guide surgical and interventional procedures.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this program, participants will be better able to:

  • Understand the added value of 3D echocardiography to assess the anatomy and the pathophysiology of the various heart diseases and be able to incorporate its use in the daily practice of the echo lab
  • Integrate 3D echocardiography information in the clinical decision making
  • Assess cardiac chamber geometry and function using 3D echocardiography
  • Use 3D echocardiography to perform quantitative analysis of heart valve morphology and function
  • Define the most important clinical uses of 3D TTE and TEE
  • Understand the role of 3D echocardiography in structural heart disease interventions
  • Recognize the role of 3D echocardiography to assess the most common congenital heart defects

Keynote Speakers

  • Luigi P. Badano- MD, PhD, FESC, FACC, Hon. FASE

    Prof. Badano currently serves as a director of the cardiovascular imaging laboratory at the Istituto Auxologico Italiano, IRCCS, Milan (IT) and a professor of cardiology at the University of Milano-Bicocca, Milan, Italy.

    Prof. Badano’s clinical interests include native and prosthetic valvular heart disease, right ventricular and atrial function, with research interests in three-dimensional and deformation imaging echocardiography and cardiac mechanics.

    Prof. Badano is a member of the Italian Society of Cardiology, Italian Society of Cardiovascular Ultrasound, European Society of Cardiology, European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging, American College of Cardiology and the American Society of Echocardiography (ASE), a fellow of the European Society of Cardiology and the American College of Cardiology, and honorary fellow of the ASE. Prof. Badano is a regular invited speaker at annual ESC, ACC, ASE and Euro Echo scientific meetings

    He has more than 290 peer reviewed publications, authored 9 books about echocardiography and cardiovascular imaging and is past-president of the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging. He is honorary member of the Hungarian society of cardiology, Romanian Society of Cardiology, Korean Society of Cardiology and British Society of Echocardiography. In 2013, he was awarded with the silver medal of the European Society of Cardiology for his clinical and research activity and his commitment as President of the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging.
