Course/Activity Information

Sonographer's Primer Moderators:

  • Alexandra Gardner, RDCS, FASE
  • Amber Taylor, MBA, ACS, RCS, RVS

Physician's Primer Moderators:

  • Jennifer Liu, MD, FASE
  • Ana Barac, MD, PhD
  • Marielle Scherrer-Crosbie, MD, PhD, FASE

Sonographer's Primer Topics:

  • What histories should the sonographer gather and include on the report?
  • Considerations for acquiring images (optimization is extremely important)
    • Pitfalls- shadowing, rib artifact, breast implants, TDS, scar tissue, patient comfort, lung artifact
    • Tips and tricks- select best images, raise gain, decrease compression, make sure 4/3/2 chamber views are at the same depth, make sure to use similar EKG/HR rhythms, make sure that ALL wall segments are in the sector, etc
  • Gaining and remaining competent/ QI- 50 needed for imaging competencies. Add it to your regular echo protocol to gain practice.
  • Discuss the importance of sonographers echo practices and the patient outcomes.
  • Walk-through examples- focus on tracking accuracy and competency building

Walk-through segments with Q&A will be a dedicated large portion of this webinar.

Physician’s Primer Topics:

  • How to interpret the strain—a reminder of the existing guidelines on the normal/abnormal values
  • What we do with the data- examples of decreased strain/normal EF- decreased strain/decreased EF
    • Anthracyclines/HER2
    • ICI
