Thoracic and Abdominal Radiology for the Veterinary practitioner

We are excited to launch this course on Thoracic and Abdominal Veterinary Radiology for the general practitioner. Through theory and case-based learning, we will initially delve into the realm radiography, learning how to critically appraise and correct exposure settings, patient positioning and collimation, ultimately obtaining images of good diagnostic quality.

 

Normal and pathological presentations of the abdomen and thorax will be discussed with a focus on common pathologies identified with X-ray in general practice. This multi-modal course presents an engaging way to learn about cardiac, pulmonary, mediastinal and general abdominal pathologies observed with plain X-ray.
