EchoCardioGraphy Guide

If you are a cardiologist in practice, a fellow in training, an echo technologist, or a cardiac anesthesiologist, then this is the right place to help you learn and review the principles of echocardiography.

Echocardiography is the most commonly performed cardiac ultrasound examination.
