"For me, the BSE Fellowship is a humbling recognition of the journey, the challenges and the passion I have poured into Echocardiography. It encourages me to keep learning, sharing and giving back to the community that has shaped me. I would encourage others to apply, as it is not only an honour but also a reminder of the value of their contribution."

We've launched a survey to understand current practice and challenges in physiologist and scientist-led echo

If you run or work in a phys/sci-led clinic, or plan to set one up, you could help develop Level 3 accreditation

Complete the survey by 30/11/2025: www.bsecho.org/Publi...
The four projected outcomes to Level 3: Improved patient pathway, physiologist progression, increased capacity and streamlined services

☢️ Have you read this year's position statement on radiation protection in echocardiography?

Studies have consistently shown that IEs are exposed to significantly higher levels of radiation than other team members – up to ten times more in some cases: www.bsecho.org/Publi...

👏👏Congratulations to all of our Fellowship 2025 recipients! We're proud of your achievements in echocardiography and your representation of our expert workforce
"It recognises years of passion, dedication, patient-centred care, and my commitment to helping others grow in echocardiography. It also connects me with colleagues who share the same values, so we can work together to drive better care and shape the future of our field. I would encourage others to apply because it is a meaningful recognition and a source of inspiration for anyone in the echo field to contribute to something bigger. The BSE brings people together, fostering collaboration, innovation and shared growth. And you may find the application process easier than you expect!"

"Being awarded BSE Fellowship is a real honour and a reflection of the values I hold close: clinical excellence, education, quality improvement and patient-centred care. It represents recognition from peers and a connection to the wider community who are committed to advancing echocardiography. I'd encourage others to apply in the future, not just for the accolade, but as an opportunity for them to reflect on their impact and inspire the next generation of cardiac scientists."
