Ideal combination of theory and hands-on experience
The DEGUM (German Society for Ultrasound in Medicine) defines clear guidelines for the organisation and certification of echocardiography courses. The courses at the Echocardiography Academy comply with these guidelines and are certified by DEGUM. This means that they meet the highest standards in terms of training and qualification.
Echocardiography is not only an indispensable basic diagnostic tool in clinical routine, but is also essential in therapy planning and implementation, particularly in the area of structural heart disease.
In the four-day advanced course, the knowledge acquired in the basic course is deepened. The focus is on the precise quantification of heart valve diseases and myocardial function. In addition, special issues such as pericardial diseases, endocarditis, heart valve prostheses and the assessment of the right heart are dealt with.
In small groups, the knowledge acquired is applied and discussed in the hands-on sessions.
The 4-day program starts on Thursday and ends on Sunday. Find out more about the specific content of the program here.
The training program takes place in presence at the DHZB Academy.
