Through a combination of guided lessons and interactive quizzes, you will be able to:

  • Navigate the fundamentals of ultrasound physics and technology
  • Develop an understanding of how artifacts arise and how to minimise their impact
  • Appreciate how limitations in imaging affect accurate localisation and measurement (e.g., tumour growth assessment)
  • Strengthen your ability to interpret ultrasound images safely and effectively in practice

Time to complete: 2 hours (self-paced learning) equivalent to 2 CPD hours

This online module is a learning resource which supports specialist doctors in critical care and is recommended to be completed alongside hands-on training e.g. ASUM-CCPU.

This course empowers specialist doctors in critical care to confidently perform focused transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) for immediate haemodynamic assessment in the sickest patients. You will learn to

  • Identify when TOE is indicated,
  • Master safe probe handling, and
  • Apply goal-directed protocols to guide management in high-stakes scenarios.

Through practical, clinically relevant lessons, you’ll gain the expertise to recognise TOE’s limitations and ensure the best outcomes for your patients.
