Cardiology fellows-in-training, both in adult and pediatric hospitals, need structured education in regards to congenital heart disease (CHD) nomenclature. With improved survival of patients with CHD, it is not uncommon for these patients to seek care in multiple adult and pediatric hospitals. A deep understanding of CHD nomenclature would aid in providing accurate medical and surgical care for these patients. In this forum, we share our experience with such structured education and also comment on recent advances in morphologic imaging that would aid in understanding the nomenclature.
