Intro to Fetal Echocardiography

LIVE Hands On Training Workshop


Build a strong foundation in fetal cardiac imaging with this Intro to Fetal Echocardiography Hands-On Workshop, designed for sonographers, maternal-fetal medicine teams, and healthcare providers who want practical, real-world experience evaluating the fetal heart. This workshop blends essential foundational concepts with guided scanning instruction so participants can begin performing and recognizing core fetal echocardiography views with confidence.

Participants will review key principles of fetal cardiac anatomy, physiology, and standard screening approaches, followed by focused instruction on image acquisition, optimization, and Doppler basics. Emphasis is placed on understanding what to look for, how to obtain the views, and how to apply a systematic approach in clinical practice.

Hands-on scanning is a central component of the experience. Attendees will work directly with ultrasound equipment under expert guidance, practicing core fetal cardiac imaging techniques, probe positioning, and workflow strategies used in real clinical settings.

FAQ

  • Is this the only training I need to be proficient in fetal echocardiography?

    No. Absolutely not! Fetal Echocardiography requires a commitment to life-long learning. It is a skill that can be challenging to master and 1 hands on workshop is not enough time to allow for that. This workshop is designed as a clinical bridge pathway into Fetal Echocardiography for sonographers who are learning Fetal Echocardiography. This provides the core didactics and targets basic foundational core fetal echo views, and will help provide a foundation and clinical jumpstart into Fetal Cardiac Ultrasound.

  • Will I be able to pass the registry exam by completing this course?

    This course does not provide a formal pathway for eligibility for your registry exam. If you are currently eligible to sit for the registry exam through the ARDMS, then this can help prepare you for those exams. However, this course does not meet any pathway requirements and does not provide clinical verification forms or clinical sites necessary for registry eligibility.

  • What are the prerequisites for this course?

    All learners in this course MUST be a registered cardiac or general sonographer or a physician/resident with understanding and documented proficiency in ultrasound physics and performing either pediatric echo or OB/GYN ultrasound exams. This is not a stand alone echo course. Learners will be expected to have the core ultrasound foundations prior to attending this course.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐This was a great SPI review!

This was a great review. The quiz feedback on the questions is helpful and I would recommend it to any imaging professional.”

Kathy Patterson

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Love the test format

This review quiz was a great format and love having mobile access. The feedback based on my answers really helped me study. I am so glad I found this website!”

Lori Dixon, RVT

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I passed my ACS!

I wanted to write you to express how grateful I am to your ACS quiz site! The explanations you provided why answers were right/wrong was exactly what I needed to prepare myself for the exam... especially the equations and math problems!!! I found that there were some of your quiz questions on the exam!! Again, thank you so much for what this site offers!!! ”

Kendra Vartia, BS, RDCS, ACS

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Great purchase and I would recommend it to any professional!

This material covers a wide scope of questions. I really liked the format and how the questions and answers are arranged, very easy to use. Also the fact that there are explanations for the answers is a plus. I really feel that this was the material that helped me the most to pass my ACS exam. Great purchase and I would recommend it to any professional that would like to advance in their career.”

Jose Serrat, ACS, RVT, RDMS, RDCS, R.NCS.T, CCT

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐The ACS registry review was very helpful!

The ACS registry review course was very helpful, especially when first beginning the process of studying. The real-time feedback helped me to discover where my knowledge gaps were so that I could target those specific areas. I would recommend this course to anyone looking to earn the ACS credential.”

Lauren Castro, ACS, RDCS

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I passed my RCCS!!

I just want to take time to say THANK YOU! I PASSED MY RCCS! I wouldn't have passed this test without your review program.”

Andrea Barnaby, RCS, RCCS

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Echocardiography knowledge base is excellent!

The advanced cardiac sonographer test and learn quiz is a wonderful tool to help prepare your mindset to think at the next level. Many of the tools we may have forgotten as sonographers are resurrected by going through these modules which you will need when taking the ACS registry test. I highly recommend the All About Ultrasound/iHeartecho ACS module and website for everyone looking to push the horizon of your knowledge to the next mountain. ”

Carlton Hartwell, ACS, RDCS, FASE

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Really great review!

I like the presentation format on the review course slides. Really easy to follow. I also like the images and question feedback on the quiz. Really good study tool! ”
