Course Overview

This CME activity will focus on advanced imaging of congenital and acquired left heart disease in the fetus, child and adult. The performance of imaging and communication of imaging findings to surgeons and interventionalists will be highlighted, with special emphasis on practical aspects of imaging, and what is most important and relevant to patient care and outcomes


Objectives
  1. Understand the anatomy and pathophysiology of left heart diseases – including congenital mitral valve disease, left ventricular outflow tract disease, coronary artery anomalies, aortic valve disease, coarctation and aortopathies – and how imaging can be employed to assess these lesions
  2. Appropriately interpret and communicate imaging findings to interventionalists, surgeons, and other care team members, in order to optimize understanding of left heart lesions and develop appropriate treatment plans and improve patient outcomes
