Now in its eleventh year, the course provides new lecture topics, enhanced video clips and extended interactive echo-anatomical sessions.

 

The course is primarily aimed at medical and non-medical sonographers who provide a routine fetal anomaly service. It is also suitable for trainees in fetal medicine, paediatric cardiology, obstetric ultrasound and advanced sonographers wishing to extend their knowledge on congenital cardiac anomalies. [15 CPD credits for 2010 and ISUOG approval].

 

The programme incorporates use of colour and power Doppler throughout and provides an opportunity for all those who scan the fetal heart to update and expand their skills under the tuition of experts.

 

It has been specifically designed to address the varying interests and needs of delegates and provides options of attending one or both days of

presentations and discussions.

 

The option of attending the third day, which offers supervised hands-on fetal scanning, is available to a limited number of delegates.

 

Course Objectives:

  • To introduce/improve the sonographer’s technique for imaging the fetal heart.

  • To enable the sonograher to identify the range of appearances of the normal and abnormal heart.

  • To enable the sonographer to distinguish between normal and abnormal features.
