The
Irish Cardiac Echo and Imaging Group (I.C.E.)
has been formed to promote the study and
advancement of ultrasound imaging and Doppler in
cardiology. It represents the interests of all
those working in echocardiography and in future
in other cardiac imaging modalities. We are
affiliated to the Irish Cardiac Society and hope
to develop functional links to the European
Association of Echocardiography.
The Society will have a major
interest in education and training. It will
provide information regarding the mechanisms of
obtaining personal and departmental
accreditation. The Society would be interested
in developing training and working links with
other European groups to facilitate movement of
trainees and accredited personnel between
departments.
Currently we hold two
meetings a year.
-
Advanced Echo - a day of lectures by
expert speakers updating on techniques
and technology.
-
A
business meeting is held at the Irish
Cardiac Society Meeting AGM.
We hope to list courses and
meetings from around the country and Europe.
