      belongs.

      Echocardiography, how to proceed?

      This is the first question. And it’s a question that you should always answer:

      What information is the doctor expecting to see in my echocardiographic images?

      This makes a difference in who knows what needs to be shown from those who only take pictures.

      Before you begin your echocardiogram, please read the patient’s chart. It is the best guide.

      One of the major concerns of the echocardiography’s student is: How to act by myself once I have finished the theory and clinical practice (externship) without the instructor’s help?

      The student has seven common questions:

      1. How to perform an echocardiograph protocol without help?

      2. Am I proceeding well, am I doing everything necessary to complete my protocol?

      3. Would be the doctor happy with my performance?

      4. Will I understand the description of the disease in the patient’s chart?

      5. How can I organize in my brain all of my accumulative knowledge in the patient’s scanning?

      6. Where could I find the immediate answer to my questions?

      7. Where could I find a small book with the necessary information to help my procedure now?

      I had at least seven questions like that when I started.

      During my experience for more than 15 years in the field, I have heard several times, these questions from my students.

      Once you have been hired as an echocardiographer for the first time, the doctors and their staff know that you haven’t experience in the field yet, but at the same time they expect from you a minimal but optimal
