These echo series will present you a large number of cases of congenital and acquired heart diseases. In both cases a problem-oriented approach will be used to guide you from your initial echo findings (phenotype) to the most common (and sometimes rare) differential diagnosis you should consider in your cases.
- Join Jose Novo Matos DVM DipECVIM (Cardiology) MRCVS for three 2-hour online sessions
- Comprehensive notes to downloaded
- Self-assessment quizzes to ‘release’ your 8 hours CPD certification (don’t worry, you can take them more than once if you don’t quite hit the mark first time)
- A whole year’s access to recorded sessions for reviewing key points
- Superb value for money – learn without travelling
- Watch the recordings on your iPad!
