This course is ideal for veterinary surgeons who are familiar with abdominal ultrasound, use this diagnostic aid regularly in practice, and are ready to perform more challenging examinations.
You will be taught various techniques to identify the pancreas, adrenal glands, peritoneum, and medial iliac lymph nodes. You will have ample opportunity to practise the use of Doppler for the examination of larger blood vessels. Case-based examples will help you consolidate your knowledge of the topics covered.
Digital notes, refreshments, and lunch are included.
Places are strictly limited to nine delegates to ensure every participant receives tailored, hands-on guidance, maximised practical time, and personalised feedback from expert tutors.
