Program Overview
Transesophageal echocardiography has become an essential diagnostic and monitoring tool in modern cardiovascular medicine, anesthesiology, and critical care. Its ability to provide real-time, high-resolution cardiac imaging allows clinicians to rapidly assess cardiac structure, function, hemodynamics, and surgical outcomes.
Perrino and Reeves’ Practical Approach to Transesophageal Echocardiography provides a structured and clinically relevant review of both the science and practical application of TEE. The content progresses from fundamental imaging concepts and Doppler principles to advanced clinical interpretation and procedural guidance.
Special attention is given to image acquisition techniques, common imaging pitfalls, artifact recognition, hemodynamic calculations, valvular assessment, and complex perioperative decision-making.
The extensive collection of clinical video clips enables learners to visualize real-world pathology and strengthen image recognition skills essential for clinical practice.
