Recording of the webinar "Assessment of echocardiographic parameters in individuals with overweight and obesity"

Obesity alters the echocardiographic picture: how to correctly assess cardiac parameters in overweight patients.

Advancedlevel

Webinar (recording)mode of study

In an obese patient the usual indices work differently, and image quality declines. The webinar covers how to correctly assess echocardiographic parameters in overweight patients and avoid misinterpretation.

You will interpret "difficult" studies more confidently in this growing group of patients.
