Course Description
Echocardiography is a multimodality imaging technique with diverse individual techniques, showing established clinical value and promise in research. The full spectrum of echocardiography involves 2D, Doppler, transesophageal, and contrast echocardiograms. Although few specialists actually perform echocardiography, most have to order or interpret them at some stage.
The primary objective of this session is not only to explain how to carry out echocardiography but also to emphasize its potential, application, and limitations. Comprehensive knowledge and skills in the field of echocardiography play a significant role in clinical decision making and diagnosis of various cardiovascular conditions. Adequate knowledge about echocardiography, its application, and interpretation aids in providing required care in cardiology units and ICUs.
Fellowship course in 2D Echocardiography – Level I is designed to provide necessary knowledge in the basic echocardiography principles, modes, application in various cardiovascular conditions, limitations, and potential. The course comprises of:
- Video-based learning strategy and easy-to-learn illustrations for effective learning and reading material
- Virtual learning from simulation modules by Simtics, New Zealand
Optional Simulation Trainings:
- Hands-on simulation training on Echocardiography
- Practice and acquire competence in hands-on Transesophageal and Transthoracic Echocardiography training using High-Fidelity Simulation.

Eligibility: Physicians (MBBS, MD, and DNB), Cardiology, general medicine, radiology residents, and residents working in cardiology and intensive care units.
Course Validity: 7 months. There will be an extra charge on the extension of the course validity.
*Statutory taxes and levies not included. Taxes will be applied on checkout. Rates may vary based on management discretion.

Accredited CPD Activity
Continuing professional development (CPD) is the intentional maintenance and development of the knowledge and skills needed to perform in a professional context. This could mean honing current skills, it could mean developing them to a new level, or it could mean learning new ones that will allow an employee’s job role to expand or prepare them for potential promotion.
CPD obligations are present in most professions. Most companies and organizations now prioritize them because they ensure a constantly developing workforce.
This means there are millions of professionals across the UK who are required to undertake CPD training every year.
Structured CPD gives employees a clear path to success within their current role and progression to future ones. Employees in regulated industries (e.g. healthcare, accountancy, legal work) can lose their license to operate if they don’t maintain their CPD.
CPD activities can range from formal educational activities such as instructor-led training courses, workshops or seminars, to more informal approaches such as work-based learning or mentoring. CPD can also include self-directed studies such as e-learning courses and structured reading.
CPD can be provided by specialist companies (e.g. commercial training providers, independent coaches), or provided internally, in particular by larger organizations.
