ECHO On vs Echo Odyssey

ECHO On is a free medical education resource for learning Transesophageal Echocardiography including a free, enlarging question bank, a Rescue TEE cognitive aid, a Case Log system for submission to the NBE, and a growing perioperative Quick Reference library with offline echo loops that work even in the OR without internet access, and includes pathology examples, techniques, and normal loops of the heart. ECHO On will walk you through an entire standard 28 view exam teaching you the anatomy, function and Doppler interrogations you should perform at each view, and how to interpret them. ECHO On is and will remain free, and the best way you can contribute is to submit boards-style questions or echo stills and echo loops to help grow the QBank, Quick Reference and Pathology libraries. Disclaimer: This app was written to provide an accessible perioperative tool for residents and fellows learning TEE in the cardiac OR and ICU, and for generalist anesthesiologists looking to refresh their knowledge of TEE. It is not meant for patients to self-diagnose. It is not meant to be a definitive reference. Despite my best efforts, there may be errors or inaccuracies in this app, so please do not use it for medical decision making, as doing so may lead you misdiagnose or seriously harm your patient. If you are not a qualified medical doctor, please see a qualified medical doctor before making any medical decisions, including those based on echocardiograms.

Echo Odyssey is a structured, visual learning journey through echocardiography—designed for sonographers, technologists, physicians, trainees, and healthcare learners. Build a connected foundation from ultrasound physics and cardiac anatomy to standard views, Doppler measurements, clinical assessment, and advanced echo concepts. LEARN STEP BY STEP • The story of ultrasound and core physics • Sonographer skills, probe positioning, and image optimization • Cardiac anatomy and the cardiac cycle • Standard transthoracic echo views • Disease-focused clinical echo assessment • A guided minimum echocardiography study checklist PRACTICE AND REVIEW • Clear visual reference cards and educational media • Search across the curriculum • Bookmarks and saved learning position • Knowledge checks and exam-style review questions • Progress tracking and a completion certificate • Adjustable text, dark mode, and an English audio reader APPLE WATCH COMPANION Use the focused minimum-study checklist on Apple Watch to move through essential views and steps without placing the full course on your wrist. Echo Odyssey is designed as an educational companion—not a patient-specific diagnostic tool. It does not replace formal training, institutional protocols, a complete echocardiographic examination, or clinical judgment. Reference values should be interpreted with current professional guidelines and local practice standards. No account is required. Learning progress and preferences are stored locally on your device.
