@DHZB_Akademie "3D Advanced Echocardiography Workshop" (happening January 22- 24, 2027) makes it clear why this is way "more than just 3D." The program bridges advanced imaging with intensive clinical realities”specifically targeting ICU management, complex valvular heart disease, mechanical circulatory support (MCS), and heart failure. Perfect for clinicians who want practical utility, not just pretty 3D pictures. Yes, it’s a 3D workshop but we are taking it straight to the ICU At the #echofirst Workshop , we aren't just looking at static valves. We’re tackling the tough cases: Echo in ICU: Deep dives into ECMO hemodynamics and using echo to guide acute fluid management.  Critical Decision Making: Using acute heart failure echo to trigger therapy (from diuretics to MCS).  Live Knobology: Real-time mastering of GE & Philips systems. Register & view the full program: backend.dhzb-akademie.de/app… Just take a look at this GOAT line up 🔝 @alex1708ander @alexsfelixecho @dr_benoy_n_shah @iceman_ex @echo_batman @FGraziani_Grace @VictoriaDe32503 @Ph_Bertrand @StellEkaterina @echo_stepbystep @fiore_corrado @LunaGargani @ArgaizR @papadocardio @eromerodorta @mauripieroni72 @KemalogluOz @JanKnierim @echotainment @DonalErwan @FH_Verbrugge

There are 2 major forms of aortic dilatation in BAV: ascending phenotype (beyond STJ, 70%) and root phenotype (20%). A case example of 👉 BAV (2-sinus) antero-posterior phenotype. 👉 Ascending phenotype BAV aortopathy #GlassVue @Philips #echofirst

#echofirst question How often is PISA EROA in primary eccentric MR suitable? How often should we use PISA / EROA for severity quantification? @argulian @echo_batman @Ph_Bertrand @dr_benoy_n_shah

No comments from here? No one having strong opinion? My take on this, is pretty clear; PISA EROA in eccentric Regurgitation is almost always a no go to pursue... #echofirst can do better 👉 abcimaging.org/wp-content/up…

My Approach to PISA EROA in Mitral Regurgitation: A Critical Review

Abstract Mitral valve regurgitation is the most common valvular heart disease. In order to guide proper therapy, it is paramount to follow and use the guideline-recommended echocardiographic tools....

Completely agree. I read letter to editor to this paper as well. And as they correctly point out- the color filter itself can make the TR from moderate to torrential. I still feel 3D VCA is better than PISA. @NMerke @argulian

Dropouts in a perfectly normal aortic valve is such a good reminder that thin leaflets can fool us in 3D so always correlate with 2D before calling anything

Very good point @NMerke when scanning the AV, we often see dropouts. A normal aortic valve obtained today intraop - single beat, FPS 13, f 5 MHz But I know where to learn 4D workflow tricks that no textbook can teach 👀 👉 xitter.cf/verwerftjan/status/210… @LHoyesWouter @Ph_Bertrand
