Non-Award
The course introduces basic transthoracic echocardiography, covering examination techniques, haemodynamic assessment, and Doppler modalities for valve disease identification. It includes tutorials, case studies, and reporting exercises, with additional series available for extended learning.
The first series introduces the student to basic transthoracic echocardiography. Tutorials show how to perform a transthoracic echocardiography examination, how to assess basic haemodynamic state, how to use two-dimensional and colour flow Doppler modalities to identify significant valve disease and case study review and reporting.
Each case study contains a scenario, a series of images that comprise the case study, a report form to complete, multiple-choice assessment to test your knowledge, and a summary and model answer report to reinforce your learning.
Additional Case Interpretation Series 2-6 are available with blocks of 10 case studies in each series.
Please note: The Case Interpretation Series 2-6 are an extension of the course "TTE Introduction & Case Interpretation Series 1" and are designed for students who wish to access a wider range of cases. The Case Interpretation Series 2-6 do not include the tutorials on transthoracic echocardiography covered in Series 1. We strongly recommend starting at TTE Introduction & Case Interpretation Series 1.
This is an online course. Upon receipt of payment, the student will receive a "Getting Started" email with instructions on how to access the course materials.
