Description

Echocardiography is a manual skill. Unlike other imaging techniques, where a patient is positioned and a technician may press a series of buttons, echocardiography requires that a skilled operator apply a transducer manually to a patient’s thorax. Moreover, as echocardiography is not a tomographic technique, the images obtained are neither uniform nor guaranteed to be of a certain quality or even spatial location. Hence, the quality of the images obtained is directly dependent on that operator’s skill and experience; the success of the examination begins and ends at the hands of the person holding the transducer.

Reviews

The overall choice of cases seems appropriate, but man are there a lot of mistakes! I would say every 5-10 cases, the answers to the multiple choice questions do not match the discussion — causes a bit of confusion while studying for the boards, and it doesn’t lend a whole lot of trust to what they are saying when I need to double check everything.
