Spacio-temporal Image Correlation (STIC) is the latest in 4D ultrasound technology. The STIC software coupled with a Voluson 730 Expert equipment allows a volumetric acquisition of the fetal heart and its vascular connections. 4D ultrasound provides fast images acquisition and the possibility of a later analysis by fetal echocardiography specialists. With STIC, ultrasound specialists are able to detect congenital heart conditions in the antenatal period with much more accuracy compared to traditional ultrasound methods.

The Workshop will be instructed by Dr. Kawataki, a leading Japanese fetal cardiology doctor from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Tohoku University Hospital. Participants will be equipped with laptop and STIC software, which will allow to learn the STIC software and apply the techniques directly. To reserve a place or to receive more information, please sign up for our newsletter. You will be sent information about the workshop and details for signing up.

Join the congress that will include leading experts, practical courses and training, and innovative technology in medical and biological ultrasound. Abstracts and case reports can be submitted for oral and poster presentations. Young researchers to clinical experts are all encouraged to submit for presentations. For more details, go to wfufmb2017.org. 

Courses and workshops will be offered to provide opportunities for clinicians, ultrasound specialists and sonographers to acquired advanced practical training in innovative techniques from leading experts from around the world.
