Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to invite you to the 2023 EACTAIC ECHO Course, which will be taking place at the Niguarda Hospital in Milan from the 20th to the 23rd May 2023.

Niguarda Hospital, Milan’s pioneering cardiac center is honoured to host the upcoming EACTAIC ECHO Course bringing together colleagues and experts from across Europe.

World-renowned experts in the field of cardiac ultrasound have collaborated to design brand new innovative curricula to meet the needs of our attendees. EACTAIC ECHO 2023 includes three courses:

  1. Basic: a predominantly hands-on course to acquire the basic skills of perioperative focused echocardiography;
  2. Certification: a state-of-the-art interactive review course targeted at preparing for the EACVI perioperative TEE exam;
  3. Advanced: a course focused on cutting-edge insights from the latest technical advances in perioperative ultrasound and practical clinical decision-making during surgery, interventional cardiology procedures, as well as in the ICU setting.

The courses will also offer the opportunity to attend a heart dissection wet lab with correlation to TEE view.

We hereby welcome you on behalf of the Organizing Committee to the 2023 EACTAIC ECHO Course at Niguarda Hospital Milan and invite you to register for the course that fits your professional needs (HERE).

We are confident that the eminent faculty members will help you progress your skills and knowledge of perioperative ultrasound to new levels and Milan, making the best of the spring weather, will ensure that you enjoy yourself while achieving important professional goals.
