Some of my previous message may have been cut-off so I am re-sending..... All I can say is when you get your ICAEL application packet, read the section on...
I perform ECHO and Vascular procedures on the Toshiba Neimo. I need help with some set-ups and fine tuning. I am having trouble with the stress package not...
You might want to try to find Laura Perrotta, RDCS. She is very knowledgeable on accreditation. I was trying to locate her contact information, but haven't...
Will second the opinion that Oh is great. Also, a book I like for quick reviews on different topics is The Ultimate Echo Guide, by Carlos Roldan. Think of it...
Over the years CCI has made much progress on improving their reputation and marketing their exam. The test that is given today is not the test of 10-15 years...
The American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) promotes quality in echocardiography laboratories and encourages labs to seek accreditation. ASE recently...

hello, For the Physics, here is a good website. It's a two day trial. Tons of questions for the physics part. I haven't found any good sites for the echo part....
Could someone point me, please, to something documenting the measuring of the MV slope decel time versus where to measure the half time, when the MV slope...
I work mobile and was able to get the lab accrediated, do you have one base or office that everything comes from? that will be your main site the rest is just...
Dear Echo Colleagues, Increasingly, labs want to be accredited. Some out of necessity; some because they want to demonstrate they are a lab of excellence (note...
Greetings, I wanted to say thank you to all of you who encouraged us, new grads no to give up. I am proud to say that I am now RCS, I took the second part of...
_www.icardiogram.com_ (http://www.icardiogram.com) We are looking into new software for viewing, reporting and storage. We really like this one, but want to...
I hope I attached a clip at the bottom of the page here. Where should I measure the half time, in your opinion? The MV leaflets and annulus are mildly to...
Anne, nicely said. My opinion of the incresing importance of accreditation and registry is to increase the consistency, and ultimately, the quality of...
This is a very nice example of a complex mitral inflow pattern. If the patient has significant MR the high early filling velocity and steep slope on the...
The Pt ½ should be measure with CWD, and it is less accurate with valves that open “normally”. In the image you provided note that there are 2 different...

The above comments are well put and correct. It is a basic problem with measurement software on current systems that they assume that the decay of the velocity...
I would like to quote Weyman Principles and Practice of Echocardiography second edition page 420 from his summary on mitral stenosis: "We prefer to measure the...
The last cardiologist I worked with that was real into echo said to measure the first downward slope, not the one shown measured in your image. I didn't get...
I recently reviewed one of the original articles concerning MVA by p1/2t (Hatle, L. 1979). What I found was that they recommended when the waveform has a...
Mean gradient should more closely correlate to cath measuements. Doppler measuement of the AV provides the peak instantaneous gradient, and often overstimates...

I am planning to be a sonographer, however since I am a foreign graduate I would need a student's visa. I have checked with few schools and they advised me...
Terry Reynolds' book says Valvular level's range is 1.0 to 2.2 (cm), and Subvalvular level's range is 1.8 to 3.4. Supravalvular level's 0.9 to 2.9. Manjula...
According to the ASE Chamber Quantification Document: RVOT directly above the Aortic Valve (SAX View) = 2.5-2.9 cm RVOT directly above the Pulmonic Avalve...
