Hands-on cardiac morphology courses

We are currently reconfiguring our courses and hope to make announcements on dates soon. To keep up-to-date, please register for The Heart Academy website to be added to our mailing list.

Overview (past courses)

Would you like to know how to analyse congenital defects in a logical and stepwise manner?

This 3-day course is suitable for all those wishing to improve their knowledge of structural heart disease (congenital heart malformations) from fetal life to adulthood. Information will be built up from analysis of normal anatomy & simple defects to more complex morphology and is suitable for a wide range of disciplines.

Aims and objectives

This 3-day course aims to allow for didactic teaching followed by small-group, object-based learning and discussion about a wide range of structural heart lesions.

Learning outcomes

By the end of the course, participants should be comfortable with the anatomy of major groups of congenital heart malformation and be able to analyse hearts in a sequential segmental fashion.
