Our Cardiovascular Training Program will use the mouse model to help users optimize their use of the Vevo high-resolution imaging system for cardiovascular phenotyping.
Specific areas of focus include:
- How to do a mouse echocardiogram, including imaging the heart in long axis, short axis and apical views.
- How to obtain images of the aortic valve, pulmonary valve, mitral and tricuspid valves
- How to use Color Doppler Mode (for Vevo 2100 system only)
- How to obtain and measure Pulsed-Wave Doppler Mode and M-Mode spectrums
- Diastolic function measurements
- Left ventricular analysis
- Workflow optimization
- Ultrasound guided injection into the myocardium
