ULTR-2006Cardiac Sonography Theory 2
Cardiac Sonography 2 is a continuation of Cardiac Sonography 1. The focus of this course has shifted to the etiology, hemodynamics, signs and symptoms and sonographic patterns as relevant to the interpretation and quantification of cardiac disease processes, including, Diastolic Function, Cardiac Embryology and Fetal Circulation, and Congenital Heart Disease. Sonographic techniques and modalities such as Transesophageal Echocardiography, Stress Echocardiography, Contrast Echocardiography and Provocative Maneuvers, and 3D/RT3D (4D) Echocardiography will also be covered in this term. Students will be challenged throughout this course to fully appreciate the many variables and factors in the accurate assessment and documentation of cardiac pathology.
