Echocardiography for the non Cardiologist
What you'll learn
- Perform a basic echocardiographic study and detect many common and important cardiac conditions.
Requirements
- There are no requirements really, but starting out with my other, free course: Basic echocardiography for beginners, will give you a good push.
Description
This is a course for beginners of echocardiography who want to learn to perform a basic echocardiogram: Assess chamber size and function, assess and grade valve regurgitation and stenosis, and recognize many common and important cardiac conditions. If you're either a beginning cardiologist, or an established non-cardiologist who wants to learn an incredibly useful new skill, this course is for you.

Instructor
I'm a 31 year-old Egyptian cardiologist with over 7 years of experience. I'm also a computer programmer; web developer; and 2D/3D graphic designer, and I'm always striving to bring my two worlds together. I got the idea for VirtualEcho back when I was a resident cardiologist, struggling with echocardiography like everybody else, and decided I could do something to help make it easier for people to learn.
