4.00 Credits
Instructs the student, through lecture and patient case study review, on how to recognize and interrogate not only valvular and wall motion abnormalities but a comprehensive list of those pathologies diagnosed via echo. Advanced imaging topics are also introduced and include: interventional echo, stress and pharmacologic echo, harmonics and contrast echo, transesophageal echo, intravascular echo, and three dimensional echo. Prerequisite: CTE 101, CTE 104, CTE 107 and CTE 109 with grades of C or better. Corequisite: CTE 110 and CTE 120.
-
3.00 Credits
Instructs the student, through an extensive instructional laboratory experience, on how to perform a basic echocardiogram including two dimensional, M-mode, and color flow imaging on an adult subject using current ultrasound equipment. Pulsed wave and continuous wave Doppler are briefly introduced. The students are also taught the professional skills deemed necessary to work in a clinical ultrasound environment. Corequisite: CTE 107.
-
3.00 Credits
Develops, through an extensive instructional laboratory experience, the student's ability to perform a complete echocardiogram including two dimensional, M-mode, and color flow imaging, and pulsed wave and continuous wave Doppler on adult subjects using current ultrasound equipment. The student is taught Doppler measurements and imaging protocols suitable for the interrogation of cardiac pathologies diagnosed by echo. Advanced modalities are introduced such as stress, contrast, three dimensional imaging, and digital echo. The student continues to groom professional skills deemed necessary to work in a clinical ultrasound environment. Corequisite: CTE 108 and CTE 120.
-
1.00 Credits
Provides the student with an opportunity to practice and expand upon clinical skills taught in previous laboratory classes. This course is not required for graduation or certificate completion. Pass/fail grade. Prerequisite: CTE 102 with grade of C or better.
-
1.50 Credits
Prepares students for the cardiac technology internship by detailing the role of the cardiac sonographer in the hospital setting. Special hospital procedures and considerations will be presented. Essential non-imaging clinical skills will be reviewed and practiced. An overview of clinical sites will be presented. Preclinical requirements will be completed. The student will participate in a 40 hour hospital observational experience. Corequisite: CTE 108 and CTE 110.
-
4.00 Credits
Provides students with practical experience in performing cardiac diagnostic procedures (mainly adult echocardiograms) in a hospital or other clinical diagnostic setting. Prerequisite: CTE 108, CTE 110 and CTE 120 with grades of C or better.
-
4.00 Credits
Introduces pediatric echocardiograph: Two-dimensional, MMode, color flow imaging, and pulsed and continuous wave Doppler interrogation of acquired and congenital heart disease. Tomographic anatomy, embryology, and fetal and neonatal circulation, anatomy and physiology are covered. This course teaches the student to systematically interpret, recognize and quantify pediatric cardiac anatomy, both normal and abnormal through lecture and case study review. Prerequisite: Admission into the Pediatric Echocardiography program. Corequisite: CTE 201 and CTE 202.
-
3.00 Credits
Instructs the student, through an extensive instructional laboratory experience, on how to perform a basic pediatric echocardiogram including two dimensional, M-mode, and color flow imaging on a pediatric subject using current ultrasound equipment. Pulsed wave and continuous wave Doppler are used with instrumentation adjustment settings specific to pediatric scanning. Prerequisite: Admission into the Pediatric Echocardiography program. Corequisite: CTE 200 and CTE 202.
-
1.50 Credits
Provides students with practical experience in performing pediatric echocardiograms in a hospital or other clinical diagnostic setting. Weekly conference will allow the instructor and students to share and discuss clinical experiences. Prerequisite: Admission into the Pediatric Echocardiography program. Corequisite: CTE 200 and CTE 201.
-
5.00 Credits
