Specialist Echocardiographer Register

About the Register

The Specialist Echocardiographer Register is an AHCS accredited register, developed in collaboration with the Society for Cardiological Science and Technology (SCST) and the National School for Healthcare Science (NSHCS) and is for people who have successfully completed the Echocardiography Training Programme run by the NSHCS.

This programme was developed in collaboration with the British Society of Echocardiography (BSE) to respond rapidly to the urgent workforce needs for Accredited Echocardiographers. More information can be found on the echo cardiography section of the NSHCS website

The register is called ‘AHCS accredited’ because at the moment we have not applied for accreditation by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). The register will be run in the same way as our registers that are PSA accredited.

You are expected to work to the standards in our Good Scientific Practice document and our relevant Standards of Proficiency.. Your title, name, specialty, and geographic location will be listed on the Specialist Echocardiographer Register which is available to the public on our website. Unless for safety reasons it is better not to.
