About this Event
Course Directors Professor Julene Carvalho & Professor Yen Ho
Now in its 24th year, this popular course is back to its 3-day format and with choice of attending in person or online. It includes updated interactive video clip sessions that reflect current national and international screening protocols. The course maintains its successful format and continues to provide new/ updated lecture topics, enhanced video clips and quiz sessions and provides an opportunity for all those who scan the fetal heart to update and expand their skills under the tuition of experts.
The course is primarily aimed at medical and non-medical sonographers who provide a routine fetal anomaly service. It incorporates techniques and ways of improving screening such as effective use of colour and pulsed wave Doppler. It takes into account the increasing demand for high-quality screening to be provided to all pregnant women. It is also suitable for trainees in fetal medicine, paediatric cardiology, obstetric ultrasound and advanced sonographers wishing to extend their knowledge on congenital cardiac anomalies.
For in person attendees, it provides the option of attending one or two days of presentations and discussions or three days that include interactive video and 3D models.
Course objectives:
- To improve the sonographer’s technique for imaging the fetal heart
- To enable the sonographer to identify the range of appearances of the normal and abnormal heart
- To enable the sonographer to distinguish between normal and abnormal features
