Intermediate Questions

This page contains links to Evernote questions that I consider ‘beyond the basics.’ This is more than I would expect from trainees on their first month of echo, and is more appropriate for residents or fellows preparing for the echo boards. In many cases the questions are designed to accompany the American Society of Echocardiography’s guidelines, which can be found here. Some links will also include additional recommended readings. The links are blue, because I see these as the ‘blue runs’ in our Utah ski analogy. Clever, right?
