Goal

The course provides a comprehensive and practical overview of all major aspects of transthoracic echocardiography. Through a structured programme, both the fundamental principles and the most relevant clinical applications are covered. The course is intended for cardiologists, cardiology trainees, anaesthesiologists, emergency physicians, intensivists, and other healthcare professionals with a particular interest in echocardiography. As such, it not only offers an excellent opportunity to refresh and consolidate echocardiographic knowledge, but also serves as ideal preparation for physicians planning to obtain EACVI accreditation in transthoracic echocardiography.
