🗒 👩🏾⚕️👨⚕️ Educational Learning Objectives
👩🏼💻🧑🏾💻 After completing this activity, the participant should be better able to:
•✅ Review the fundamentals of ultrasound physics.
• ✅ Perform hemodynamic calculations using ultrasound.
• ✅ Define the clinical application of two and three-dimensional echocardiographic imaging and the use of the Doppler principle to assess normal and abnormal cardiac states.
• ✅ Discuss the normal and abnormal anatomy and function of the native and implanted valves using 2D/3D imaging and Doppler-derived quantification.
• ✅ Assess the integral role of echocardiography-guided decision-making in complex surgery, percutaneous therapies, and clinical dilemmas.
📍Welcome to the SCA Echo Board Exam Review Course 2025. This course is designed to prepare those undertaking the National Board of Echocardiography
Examination of Special Competence in Advanced Perioperative Transesophageal
📌 Echocardiography (Advanced PTEeXAM). Throughout the weekend, participants will engage in an in-depth review of ultrasound physics, progressing from fundamental principles to advanced concepts through a series of didactic lectures and workshops.
Additionally, the course includes six ‘Mock Exams’, each comprised of 40 multiple-choice questions, with each question followed by a detailed explanation. Expert panel discussions will follow each ‘Mock Exam’ to further elaborate on key concepts and address participant questions.
We hope you enjoy the course, and we are delighted to support you in this worthy endeavor!
