Goals
CardiologySite.com
was conceived to serve as a remote learning experience for
health care providers, students, residents, fellows and people
interested in expanding their knowledge in specific areas
of cardiology. It was designed to provide the equivalent of
classroom lectures and demonstrations with the use of the
latest web-based multimedia technology. To facilitate
this process, lessons were designed from the ground up instead
of scanning in textbooks or videotaping a slide presentation
and then modifying it for use on the Internet. This site includes
instructional
movies,3-D
animation, panoramic
views, online
quiz, interactive
video clips, interactive
heart sounds & murmurs and interactive
echocardiograms.
