Thoracic Imaging – Radiography and Ultrasonography

Location: Veterinær Akademiet Vest, Solbakken 26, Vojens

This two-day course in thoracic imaging is designed to enhance your skills in both radiographic and ultrasonographic evaluation of the thorax (excluding cardiac imaging). The course will provide a systematic approach to diagnosing thoracic diseases and a practical understanding of how to utilize both radiography and ultrasound to identify pathological changes in the thoracic cavity.

The course integrates theoretical instruction with practical training to ensure a comprehensive understanding of both radiographic and ultrasonographic thoracic diagnostics.

You will learn:

Thoracic Radiography – Systematic Interpretation and Diagnosis

• Identification of normal thoracic radiographic anatomy, including the thoracic wall, pleural cavity, diaphragm, mediastinum, lungs, and thoracic vasculature
• A structured approach to thoracic radiograph interpretation
• Recognition of radiological changes associated with diseases affecting the thoracic wall, pleural space, diaphragm, lungs, and mediastinum
• Case discussions and clinical problem-solving sessions

Thoracic Ultrasonography – Practical Application and Diagnosis

• Review of normal thoracic ultrasonographic anatomy (excluding the heart)
• Practical training in T-FAST scanning for the assessment of pleural effusion, pneumothorax, and other acute thoracic conditions
• Identification of sonographic changes associated with common thoracic pathologies, including pleural and pulmonary abnormalities
• Hands-on sessions focusing on ultrasound-guided biopsy and aspiration techniques
