Hsin-Yueh Liang

Director
Dr. Hsin-Yueh Liang had received 4-year echocardiography training in Mayo clinic and Johns Hopkins University in the United States and became a professional member in American Heart Association. Afterwards, she proactively promoted advanced echocardiography and was invited to deliver presentations on annual medical conferences. She performs about 2500 chest ultrasound examinations, 350 stress echocardiographies and 250 transesophageal echocardiographies every year. Since 2013, she has devoted herself to treating patients, utilizing the interventional transesophageal echocardiography, with other physicians specializing in cardiac catheterization. In 2017, she introduced the techniques of contrast-enhanced ultrasound to help CMUH link up with international standards in the echocardiography.
