Interdisciplinary theoretical and practical course on Congenital Heart Diseases in the Fetus.
The course allows understanding fetal images of Congenital Heart Diseases, which are presented not only in presentations, by also through live scans. The topics are discussed together with an experienced pediatric cardiac surgeon and pediatric cardiologist, who also present the issues of prognosis and treatment possibilities. We are focusing much attention on practical classes. Every participant is provided with a colorful textbook with high resolution images including about 200 pages of key comments. Classes are coordinated by Dr. Agnieszka Nocuń and Assoc. Prof. Marcin Wiecheć –clinicians, enthusiasts of prenatal diagnostics.
