Cleveland Clinic’s State of the Art Echocardiography highlights practical issues in echocardiography, featuring insight and real world cardiovascular clinical practice cases from nearly 30 internationally renowned experts. This activity provides guidance for optimal utilization of echocardiography in managing valvular heart disease, heart failure, device therapies, cardiomyopathies and endocarditis. Special sessions will be dedicated to structural heart interventions, adult congenital cardiology, innovative technologies and multimodality imaging. Worth 18 AMA PRA Category I Credits™, this enduring material meets Echo Lab CME requirements for physicians and sonographers, with NO POST TEST. Additionally, physicians can earn up to 18 ABIM MOC points for this activity.  State of the Art Echocardiography can also aid preparation for initial board certification or MOC assessment in general cardiology and echo.
