CT interpretation advanced
16-17 November 2023
A deeper level in interpretation of skeletal-, neurological-, abdominal- and thoracic pathologies. This course can be seen as a continuation of the program “CT interpretation in small animal practice”
Level: Advanced
Course description
This online course is aimed at veterinarians that are reading CT-images and wants to reach a higher level. The aim is to develop your in-house interpretation in more advanced cases. This course will focus on interpretation and interactive case discussions based on scientific evidence. We assume that you already know how to use a CT-viewer.
The course is given in English.
Learning objectivs
After the course the participants will
have knowledge of CT protocols for any specific pathology
have a structured and efficient approach to interpret CT pathologies
be able to write a structured imaging report
understand and describe different pathological changes and grade the most likely diagnosis
have theoretical knowledge of how to perform CT-guided sampling
have knowledge of current publications and websites
Course set up
This online course will be divided in four sections with one anatomical theme /section (that is head/neck, musculoskeletal/spine, abdomen and thorax). Each section will start with a short introduction and then continue with individual imaging interpretation. We will end each section with case discussions and interpretation tips using screen-sharing. The participants will receive approximately 4 cases/section to download to their DICOM-viewer. The lecturer will support the participants during the individual interpretation. The course will start at 9.00 and end at 16.00 (CET) both days.
