OVERVIEW

31st Annual State-of-the-Art Echocardiography is organized by American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) and will be held during Feb 17 - 20, 2018 at Paradise Point Resort & Spa, A Destination Hotel, San Diego, California, United States of America.

The target audience for this medical event is adult and pediatric cardiologists, cardiovascular surgeons, anesthesiologists, radiologists, nurses, sonographers and fellows in training. Participants should have a practical knowledge of echocardiography. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 33.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.

Course Overview :
The content has been revitalized to focus on new technologies and techniques. The faculty will provide expertise on strain imaging, 3D echocardiography, valve disease, and intervention. Live imaging will allow attendees to watch experts perform these new imaging techniques. Particular attention will be paid to knobology and how to incorporate these techniques into practice.

This course will allow participants to spend time viewing a recorded case and reviewing complications. As patients become more familiar with valve disease and intervention and more centers are performing these complicated procedures, it is important for practitioners to become more comfortable with diagnosis, intervention, and monitoring.

Learning Objectives :
Upon completion of this course, participants will be better able to:
• Incorporate state-of-the-art clinical applications of echocardiography and Doppler ultrasound into clinical decision-making
• Utilize echocardiography in valvular heart disease
• Evaluate patients prior to, during, and following various structural heart disease procedures such as TAVR, mitral clip, and left atrial appendage closure
• Perform a 3D acquisition and measurement of biventricular size and function; have a better understanding of the “knobology”
• Explain the new diastolic function guidelines
• Assess left ventricular function with state-of-the-art echocardiographic technology including strain imaging

Additional Details will be posted as soon as they are available.
