DocmedED 2026 Fetal Echocardiography Normal and Abnormal Hearts

• Include: 40 videos +  pdf, size:  GB
• Target Audience: physicians and sonographers in the fields of obstetric imaging, fetal echocardiography, and pediatric cardiology
• Sample video: contact me for sample video
• Information:

This teaching activity provides detailed information on the evaluation of the normal fetal heart both from an anatomic and functional approach. In keeping with progress in this field, detailed information on the use of three-dimensional ultrasound in fetal echocardiography and cardiac imaging in the early gestation is presented. The course also provides a comprehensive evaluation of various cardiac malformations, involving abnormalities of the cardiac chambers and the outflow tracts.

Congenital heart disease is the most common congenital malformation with a significant impact on neonatal morbidity and mortality. Prenatal diagnosis and management of congenital heart disease is a collaborative effort between maternal–fetal medicine specialists and pediatric cardiologists. The renowned course faculty represents the specialties, and all are actively involved in caring for pregnancies complicated with fetal cardiac abnormalities.

Target Audience

This teaching activity will greatly benefit physicians and sonographers in the fields of obstetric imaging, fetal echocardiography, and pediatric cardiology. Residents in obstetrics and gynecology, as well as fellows in maternal-fetal medicine and pediatric cardiology, will also benefit greatly. It should also prove valuable to those physicians and sonographers wanting to gain a more in-depth knowledge of fetal echocardiography.
