Basic Small Animal Abdominal Ultrasound

2 day class

This introductory course will provide 8 hours of RACE certified lecture material and approximately 8 hours of hands training. Lecture content will cover basic ultrasound physics, machine operation with focus on creating diagnostic images, general scanning techniques, and the normal appearance of the intra-abdominal structures. This will include a review of normal small animal anatomy and normal variants that may be seen sonograhically. During lab training, students will be guided to find and thoroughly examine the intra-abdominal structures, including the hepatobiliary system, spleen, gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, adrenal glands, lymph nodes, and major vasculature.
