Live 3D TEE offers clinicians the ability to perform accurate and relevant assessments of the Aortic Valve during Transcatheter Aortic Valve procedures. Live 3D echocardiography allows visualization of Transcatheter Aortic Valve devices before, during and immediately after implantation.
This two-day course is designed to provide interventional cardiologists, non-interventional cardiologists, cardiac anesthesiologists and cardiac sonographers on TAVR teams with the fundamental skills required to obtain and analyze high-quality Live 3D TEE images. The course focuses on the images and analysis needed for TAVR procedures.
This first day of this course will be taught by George Gellert, M.D., Medical Director, Interventional Echocardiography, Structural Heart Program, Cavanagh Heart Center, Banner Good Samaritan Medical Center, Phoenix, Arizona and Associate Clinical Professor, Department of Anesthesiology, Creighton University School of Medicine.
The second day of this course will be presented by Philips clinical specialists and focuses on QLAB analysis software.Educational material will be presented in the form of lectures, case presentations, informal discussions and hands-on image manipulation that together will provide a thorough introduction to the fundamentals of Live 3D TEE and its practical use in Transcatheter Aortic Valve interventional procedures.
