Labster's Cardiac Ultrasound simulation
In our Cardiac Ultrasound simulation you will investigate a giant holographic heart using Doppler ultrasound techniques to practice linking echocardiographic projections to cardiac structures and anatomy.
Play the simulation from a laptop/desktop on Chrome or Firefox
After playing this simulation you’ll be able to:
- Recall the path of travel for blood during a typical heartbeat.
- Name and describe some of the projections that can be obtained by Doppler ultrasound imaging.
- Relate the position and angle of the transducer as well as the direction of its indicator to a given projection displayed by an echocardiographic instrument.
- Identify anatomical landmarks and structures in different projections.
