Course Overview

The Mayo Clinic Echocardiography Online Board Review 2025 is a comprehensive educational program designed to provide an in-depth review of the entire field of echocardiography while supporting preparation for the National Board of Echocardiography (NBE) examinations.

Developed and presented by renowned Mayo Clinic faculty and leading echocardiography experts, this course combines foundational principles, advanced imaging techniques, clinical case discussions, and board-focused review content into a structured learning experience suitable for both exam preparation and clinical practice enhancement.

The curriculum covers the complete spectrum of echocardiography, including ultrasound physics, Doppler hemodynamics, valvular heart disease, ischemic heart disease, heart failure, cardiomyopathies, congenital heart disease, pericardial disease, stress echocardiography, strain imaging, and advanced 3-D echocardiographic techniques.

Participants benefit from expert-led lectures that emphasize the practical integration of echocardiographic findings into real-world cardiovascular diagnosis and patient management.
