The event had eminent international faculty and national faculty from various MCI recognized medical institutes, who have been the pioneers in their fields.

We obtained valuable feedback from the delegates, who were highly appreciative of the quality of the talks.
e-EPICON held on 13th December 2020 focused on ‘Point of Care Ultrasound Workshop-POCUS’ over an interactive five hours period under the leadership of Dr. Sanjeev Bhoi, Dr. Tej Sinha and his team. The conference emphasized ‘ABCD of ultrasound’ in pediatric emergency along with its incorporation in PALS. The workshop was much appreciated by the delegates.
