Cardiology Ablation Fellowship Training Program
Cardiology Ablation Fellowship Training Program
Duration: 5 Working Days (Intensive Clinical Fellowship)
Mentor: Prof Batur Gönenç Kanar, MD,
Format: Observership + Hands-on Exposure (Cath Lab–Based)
Target Audience: Cardiologists & Cardiology Fellows with interest in Electrophysiology
Tuition Fee: 3,500 € + VAT
Program Overview
This 5-day Cardiology Ablation Fellowship Training Program is designed to provide in-depth exposure to cardiac electrophysiology and catheter ablation procedures, combining structured theoretical sessions with real-life catheter laboratory observership.
Under the mentorship of Prof. Dr. Batur Kanar, participants will gain practical insights into patient selection, procedural planning, mapping systems, ablation strategies, and post-procedural management, with a strong focus on clinical decision-making.
