Congenital Imaging Webinar

Join us for this specialised Congenital Imaging Webinar designed to provide practical insights into the role of imaging in guiding complex surgical decision-making. The programme will explore two critical areas: Double outlet right ventricle and precision in aortic valve surgery in the paediatric age. Faculty experts will demonstrate how to interpret and integrate findings from echocardiography, MRI, and CT, while highlighting their impact on surgical planning. Through focused lectures, multimodality comparisons, and challenging clinical cases, delegates will gain a deeper understanding of how imaging can simplify complexity, support repair strategies, and improve outcomes in congenital heart surgery.
