Veterinary Radiology - Overview:
This training programme in veterinary radiology is designed for veterinarians who wish to broaden their knowledge in diagnostic radiology of companion animals. The objective of the programme is to provide participants with a logical approach to radiographic image interpretation, including detection of pertinent radiographic signs and generation of a prioritized differential diagnosis.
The programme is based essentially on clinical case studies in small group work and interactive teaching to stimulate an active learning process. The aim of the programme is give participants enough knowledge and ability in radiographic image interpretation to achieve independence in common clinical situations and to facilitate their collaboration with European specialists in this field.
