Overview
A comprehensive Level 1, 3-day course on why and how to use cardiac MRI in cardiovascular
medicine.* Heavily hands-on practical with review of clinical 50 cases, simulation scanning and
image analysis performed directly by attendees on dedicated workstations. The content of the
programme is in line with the ESC/EACVI CMR core syllabus. The course is designed for trainees
and consultants, either cardiologists or radiologists that have started and wanting to start CMR.
Registration is limited to 20 participants to ensure max interaction with the faculty.
