Certificate Diploma Program in ECG & TMT Technology

Overview

ECG and TMT are basic diagnostic tools to investigate cardiac diseases. This training programme has been designed to provide understanding on basic concepts of ECG and TMT to a person who really wants to be a master in this field. Overall aim of this programme is to generate more qualified personnel who have a basic understanding of these investigations, can understand limitations and usages of these tools.
