Intracardiac Echocardiography (ICE) [Unguided]

Intracardiac Echocardiography (ICE) is a simulation that guides users through the process of performing an intracardiac echocardiogram. Learners practice positioning the catheter, obtaining clear imaging, and interpreting results to assess heart function. This hands-on training enhances diagnostic skills and prepares users for real-world procedures in a safe, controlled environment.

Track learner progress

Run this simulation with a class and watch it happen: who started, who finished, and how long each learner took. Drill into a run to see what they actually did.

Group sessions

SimGenie acts as a built-in lab assistant. A learner who gets stuck can ask for a hint by voice, and it adapts its guidance to what they are doing in the scene.
