Professional Education and Training
Onsite Training
To help all our customers get the most from Biosense Webster’s innovative technology, we offer onsite training and clinical support. On request, Biosense Webster field personnel will conduct training and in-service education on the use of our diagnostic and therapeutic catheters.
Physicians and medical staff who plan to use the CARTO XP or RMT Navigation Systems must receive training prior to using the system. Training is performed by clinical personnel who are experienced in working with our navigation systems. We offer customized onsite training and special 2-day workshops for technicians and nurses at our state-of-the-art training facilities.
