Fast track course in diagnostic techniques in small animal cardiology
Three-day course
Principal Tutor:
Joao Loureiro DVM CertVC MRCVS
Summary
This comprehensive and interactive course will review all aspects of clinical cardiology focusing on the recent advances in diagnosis and evidence based therapy. Lectures will be supported by several murmur recordings, electrocardiograms, thoracic radiographs, echocardiography movies and angiograms of common cardiac cases but also of more unusual conditions. Practical sessions have been designed to complement the theorical principals with clinical cases, but one day will be devoted to mostly hands-on echocardiography to allow delegates to follow a step-bystep approach from the basics to the more advanced aspects of this most relevant diagnostic tool.
