About this event

  • Date and time Thu 24 Apr 2025 from 8:30am to 5:00pm
  • Location Royal Society of Medicine
  • Organised by Cardiology, British Society of Echocardiography

Join us for this exciting meeting on advanced imaging and clinical strategies for managing heart failure. This event continues the joint British Society of Echocardiography and the Royal Society of Medicine’s annual Advanced Imaging Day.

Looking ahead, sessions will highlight cutting-edge imaging for phenotyping Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), pulmonary hypertension, and amyloidosis. A keynote lecture on the future of heart failure treatment will also be presented. The day concludes with a multidisciplinary team discussion featuring real-world cases, offering actionable insights for improved patient outcomes.

By attending this event, you will learn:

  • Advanced imaging's role in cardiogenic shock, transplant assessment, CRT optimisation, and guiding interventions for valvular heart failure
  • HFpEF as the "new pandemic"
  • The interplay with atrial myopathy, and identifying elevated filling pressures in atrial fibrillation.
