The Alfred ICU has a strong echocardiography and ultrasound focus. We believe that echocardiography is increasingly important in modern intensive care practice. The intensivists with a particular interest in echocardiography include Tim Leong, Deirdre Murphy, Asim Shah, Vinodh Nanjayya, Steve Philpot, Lisen Hockings, Owen Roodenburg, Steve McGloughlin and Miles Beeny.
The Alfred Critical Care Echocardiography Course isĀ a 2 day course with a strong clinical focus and is run twice yearly.
