Beyond the Belly: Gastrointestinal Ultrasound in Dogs and Cats

Beyond the Belly: Gastrointestinal Ultrasound in Dogs and Cats
Beyond the Belly: Gastrointestinal Ultrasound in Dogs and Cats

How can we distinguish normal gastrointestinal anatomy from subtle sonographic abnormalities – and which findings really matter clinically?  
This practical webinar covers the ultrasonographic examination of the gastrointestinal tract in dogs and cats, from scanning technique, anatomy and normal wall layering to a wide range of challenging pathological findings. Using real ultrasound cases, we will explore several pathologies such as foreign bodies, intussusception, inflammatory diseases, IBD, gastrointestinal tumors, perforation and postoperative changes.  
A practical webinar for anyone looking to improve their confidence in GI ultrasound and interpret sonographic findings more accurately.
