The Fetal Echocardiography series provides a comprehensive resource for physicians, sonographers and healthcare professionals interested in learning more about or integrating fetal echocardiography into their practice. Beginning with a review of the fetal cardiac anatomy, interactive didactic lectures cover a plethora of fetal cardiac pathologies as well as focusing on how to recognize the sick fetus, how to implement a multi-disciplinary approach to perinatal management and, when applicable, surgical options to consider. Since the ability to recognize pathology is based on a solid understanding of normal anatomy and physiology, we have included a ScanLab which demonstrates the normal fetal cardiac anatomy and physiology, including color and spectral Doppler. In addition to scanning techniques and protocols, Dr. Gardiner provides technical tips throughout the ScanLab to aid in image optimization. Interactive CheckPoints are integrated throughout the series to reinforce key concepts, aiding in maximum retention of the content presented. As with all Pegasus Lectures’ online courses, the participant is able to create a customized review.
