IMAGES FROM THE HEART
A Curated Photo Exhibit by the
American Society of Echocardiography Foundation
Give Us Your Best Shot!
As echocardiographers, we know our members excel at taking images of the heart. Now, you have the opportunity to share the images you’ve taken from the heart. Perhaps you have a special photo of a child you interacted with, the chaos of traffic in a busy city, a new group of friends, a river winding through lush green hills, or a bustling marketplace. We invite you to share these heartfelt memories (and tell us what they mean to you) for our photography exhibit, to be held during the ASE 2024 Scientific Sessions in Portland, OR, June 14 – 16.
Theme:
Photographs that hold a special place in your heart. The image does not need to be medical in nature and does not need to have been taken while participating in a medical event. Photos may be of people, landscapes, cultural observations, architectural structures, etc. Think of the phrases, “I left my heart in…” or “This has my heart” when considering what photo(s) to submit. If you submit a photograph of a patient examination, we ask that you be respectful in protecting the privacy and dignity of the patient.
