2nd European Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Course in Congenital Heart Disease
10-11th October 2024
The Royal Marsden Conference Centre, Chelsea, Stewarts Grove,
off Fulham Road, London, SW3 6JJ
Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Focus on Paediatric and Congenital Heart Disease
This course will cover the range of common congenital cardiac lesions and acquired heart disease in children and adults.
About the course
Overview
Following the success of the first European Congenital CMR course in Kiel, Germany in 2023, we are delighted to announce a second course in 2024.
This hybrid course is endorsed by the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (SCMR) and the Association for European Paediatric and Congenital Cardiology (AEPC) and will be delivered by an experienced and dynamic international faculty of expert imaging cardiologists and radiologists in paediatric and adult congenital heart disease.
Who should attend
It is dedicated to both trainees and experienced clinicians who would like to improve their knowledge of CMR imaging in paediatric and adult congenital heart disease including acquired heart disease and complex conditions.
Course delivery
The programme includes a mixture of theoretical and practical parts including scanning and hands-on CMR analysis sessions for those who will attend the course in person.
For those participants who will join the virtual sessions, we will ensure that the course lectures will include practical aspects.
Some lectures will be dedicated to cutting edge CMR methods which are invented in the hosting hospitals such as fetal CMR, diffuse tensor imaging, hybrid CMR and 4D flow.
