Program of December 2th-6th 2024 Course
Critical care TEE is a key
component of advanced
critical care echocardiography.
It offers unparalleled image
quality that is required for
management of
cardiopulmonary failure in the
ICU when transthoracic
echocardiography is not
sufficient to answer the
clinical question. Of interest to
North American intensivists,
the National Board of
Echocardiography (NBE) is
now offering certification in
critical care TEE.
