ECVDI, European and British diplomat in Diagnostic Imaging, accredited in AVEPA and responsible for the Diagnostic Imaging Service of Veterios.
The course began with an introduction to the technical and physical aspects of ultrasound and continued with the exploration of the different organs, observing their normal image and their possible pathologies in the spleen, liver, gastrointestinal, urinary and genital systems. In the afternoon, the 22 attendees from the group's veterinary centres as well as from other centres, had the opportunity to practice what they had learned in practical workshops using state-of-the-art ultrasound scanners provided by Fujifilm. The day was rated as excellent by the attendees and counted with the collaboration of Distrivet Covetrus.
