General Overview
General Overview
Radiology is the most available and economic diagnostic imaging technique, but it is not the easiest to interpret. With enough experience it is possible to carry out complex pathologies and make life saving diagnoses. The aim of the course is to provide a systematic approach and a key to interpret the most complex radiographic cases. You will be able to gain enough information to be able to treat the patient in emergency. Thorax, abdomen and skeletal structures will be included in the course that will be mostly based on real practical cases.
This course is part of a full study program in veterinary diagnostic imaging, consisting out of 5 courses of 5 days duration each.
