Australasian Paediatric and Congenital Echocardiography Conference
2 - 3 April 2027 | Perth, Western Australia
Welcome
We are delighted to welcome you to the Australasian Paediatric and Congenital Echocardiography Conference (APCEC) in Perth— a two-day event bringing together our paediatric and congenital cardiac imaging community from across Australasia and Asia.
Following the format of the European Echocardiography in Congenital Heart Disease Symposium, widely regarded as the leading educational course in congenital echocardiography, APCEC brings this internationally recognised masterclass directly to our region. The program covers lesion-specific topics in congenital heart disease, integrating morphological and imaging correlation from basic through to advanced levels. It has a strong practical focus, equipping delegates with knowledge and skills that are highly applicable to everyday clinical practice.
The APCEC meeting unites our Australasian multidisciplinary paediatric and congenital cardiac community with world-leading experts and provides an unparalleled opportunity to network, share knowledge, strengthen collaboration, inspire research and innovation and continue our collective pursuit of excellence in cardiac imaging and patient care.
We look forward to welcoming you to Perth in 2027!
