Attended by close to 900 participants. Another great year of success. See you next year in Toronto in April 2024. Stay tuned to more online programs throughout the year and our special programs during Canadian Cardiovascular Congress in Montreal in October 2023.
We would like to invite you all to attend the 25th Annual Canadian Society of Echocardiography Hybrid Weekend to be held April 13-15, 2023, at the Toronto Marriott Downtown Eaton Center Hotel. This a very special year for multiple reasons and I surely hope you can join us! We will be gathering together in person for the first time in three years to celebrate our Silver Anniversary, and, for those who cannot come in person, we will also be live streaming as we hold our first-ever hybrid meeting!
Dear CSE membership:
Wishing you all the very best for a safe, peaceful, and joyful holiday season! We thank you for your dedication to sharing our CSE mission in your commitment to excellence in Echocardiography, and the promotion and delivery of quality echocardiographic services across Canada.
We are looking forward to 2023 and would like to take this opportunity to remind you of our premiere annual educational event, CSE Echo Weekend, to be held at the Downtown Marriott, Toronto, Ontario, April 13-15, 2023.
It will be a very special event this coming year, as we will celebrate our 25th Silver Anniversary!! We will be together in person for the first time in 3 years!
Also for the first time, the event will be HYBRID, with the inclusion of virtual live-streamed and on-demand access to the presentation lectures for those who cannot attend in person. However, we highly encourage you to attend in person, as we will be having many aspects of the program that can only be delivered face-to-face, including live poster sessions, Learning Labs (3-D and Strain) and hands-on Workshops (contrast, POCUS and stress echo), along with “edutainment” Canadian Echo Game Show, and networking celebration events!
Please mark your calendars for April 13-15, 2023, so we may reunite and reconnect, and share together our educational and professional knowledge and collegiality!
Happy Holidays!Sharon, Igal and Davinder
