CONTINUOUS EDUCATION: The Practice of Echocardiography
Basic, intermediate, and advanced information on the diagnosis of various heart diseases studied in Adult Echocardiography.
Aimed at Cardiologists and Sonographers dedicated to Echocardiography, who already have some practical knowledge of the method, and wish an extensive range of theoretical and practical experience from Dr. Fernando Morcerf, many exclusive and original.
You will notice that the classes go direct to the issue.
A life with more than 35 years of continuous working on Echo and Teaching. Using logic, studies, and experience for deep explanations to depict what really works on a day-by-day base, not only on guidelines or preconception.
Notice also that ALL examples provided are cases from my own experience.
In addition to the video lessons, the student will be able to send their doubts and questions directly to Dr. Morcerf using an e-mail or WhatsApp number that will be provided. It is not a Group; hence, any message will be exclusively between us. When relevant to the questions, imagens may also be sent, however I cannot give a complete report about a case, just answer to your questions.
Only the active students will be able to access this service of Consulting, Mentoring and Continuous Education.
A CERTIFICATE with the total hours of the course will be provided at the end of the period.
Each Course presents a General Subject composed of several video classes grouped here, to meet those interested in a specific topic. Click on a video lesson to see a summary of the topic.
Pericardium
Pericardial Problems (14min)
In this class we have pericardial effusions, pericarditis, pericardial tap and tamponade.
Constricted Pericarditis (10min)
Easy diagnose to do if you get a subcostal view. Impossible to mistake with restrictive cardiomyopathy! Several Doppler signs.
Pericardial cyst (1min)
Usually not a problem but recall the classes on tumor that, at least lymphomas may simulate it.
Pericardial Tumors (4min)
Most of them are metastatic. Always with pericardial effusion. Occasionally difficult to differentiate from pericardial fat.
Partial agenesis of the left pericardium (6min)
Partial agenesis of the left pericardium is a condition that is often confused with ASD but can be easily diagnosed on one-dimensional echo.
Several reasons you can error in the diagnose of pericardial effusion. (11min)
It seems difficult to happen … A large increase in AE can simulate a pericardial effusion.
