I invite you to come to our 12th Annual Canadian Society of Echocardiography meeting beginning April 29th to May 1st at a new location this year. We have grown so much we have had to move to a larger venue.

We will be holding our meeting at the Hilton Hotel in downtown Toronto. The meeting promises to be our largest ever. This year we will run parallel sessions for sonographers and physicians.

As always the Canadian Echo Weekend is designed around the needs and the requests you have made over the past eleven meetings. We will focus on what you tell us is common in your clinical setting and will help you to improve patient care.

We will present interesting cases including how to handle discordant information from echocardiography and state of the art reviews of left ventricular systolic and diastolic function assessment, stress echocardiography, 3D echocardiography and valvular disease.

The faculty is looking forward to seeing you again this year at the 12th Annual Canadian Society of Echocardiography meeting.
