Dear Friends,

With great honor and pleasure, Hong Kong will be the host city for ECHO ASIA. On behalf of the Local Organizing Committee and the Asian Pacific Association of Echocardiography, we cordially invite you to participate in the 3rd ECHO ASIA to be held from 28 to 30 May, 2021 at the Hong Kong Academy of Medicine.

The Scientific Committee has prepared a world class 2.5-day program showcasing the latest research and findings in the entire field of echocardiography as well as delivering the benchmark for best practice through the participation of a long list of internationally renowned speakers.

We are excited to bring to you multiple hands-on workshops on 3D echocardiography, strain analysis, POCUS (point-of-care ultrasound), echo simulators, and 3D printing. ECHO ASIA will be an excellent platform for cardiologists, surgeons, emergency physicians, anesthesiologists, trainees, allied health professionals, healthcare experts in the field and industry partners for learning and networking opportunities.

We welcome your active participation in the congress by submitting abstracts for presentation at the free oral paper and poster sessions. We are confident that our participants will have a remarkable knowledge exchange through this platform.

Besides the scientific program, we would also like to invite you to enjoy the sights and sounds of this great city to the fullest. Situated in the heart of Asia, Hong Kong is the most beautiful, dynamic and sophisticated city with a unique blend of East-meets-West culture. We sincerely hope our participants will enjoy the vibrancy generated by the legendary shopping opportunities, internationally renowned cuisine, remarkable efficiency and friendly people of Hong Kong.

We encourage you to join us at the conference and look forward to seeing you at ECHO ASIA!
