ECHO3101 — Cardiac Anatomy & Physiology
The course provides the student with an in-depth understanding of gross and cross-sectional cardiac anatomy and an understanding of normal cardiac physiology. The concepts of cardiovascular physiology include circulation blood flow, the cardiac cycle, electrical and mechanical properties of the heart, and blood flow hemodynamics of the arterial and venous system. This course provides the foundation for advanced physiologic concepts and Doppler hemodynamic assessment in subsequent courses.
