Intraoperativeechocardiography will be taughtduring a symposium on Sunday and innumerous additional sessions through-out the meeting. These sessions willpresent lectures on the various aspectsof intraoperative echocardiography bynoted experts in the field and challeng-ing case presentations by a panel ofexperts with active audience participa-

tion. There will be a Pediatric Trackthroughout the program to exploreissues in pediatric echocardiography.The Sonographer Sessions, organizedby the ASE Council on CardiacSonography, will focus on the mechan-ics of obtaining appropriate echo/Doppler images and hemodynamics.
