Abstract

A significant challenge in transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) training is learning to navigate between the 20 standard diagnostic views. The limited availability and cost of full-scale high fidelity TOE simulators means trainees must practice on patients. We developed an online TOE simulator (http://pie.med.utoronto.ca/TEE/http://pie.med.utoronto.ca/TEE/). By selecting a view from a diagram the user can navigate between the 20 standard views, observing the probe and ultrasound beam movements on a 3D heart model with the corresponding TOE recording.
