Course curriculum

  • Module 1. Methodology of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE)
    • — Definition
    • — Modes used
    • — Structure of the echoscope
    • — Indications and contraindications
    • — Complications
    • — Algorithm of the procedure
  • Module 2. Acoustic windows and views
  • Module 3. The role of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in assessing the severity of valvular heart disease
  • Module 4. Infective endocarditis
  • Module 5. Diagnosis of LA and LAA thrombi

Much of the heart is visible only "from within" — and this is where transesophageal echocardiography begins. The course is for those who already master transthoracic access: TEE methodology, access points and views, assessment of valvular defects, infective endocarditis and left atrial appendage thrombi.

You will reach the next level of mastery and take on examinations that are inaccessible with conventional access.
