With Conf. Reg. Fee: Vets $750 Wet Lab Only Fee: Vets $950 Wet lab registration includes lunch. This course is designed to teach participants the technical aspects of a variety of canine soft tissue surgery procedures. Some ‘theory’ will be included in the lectures, but emphasis will be placed on ‘how’ to perform each procedure. The instructors will utilize video clips of clinical cases that represent the procedures participants will perform in the lab. Surgical procedures will be performed immediately after viewing the video. Topics have been chosen that represent surgical conditions commonly seen in veterinary practice and will include: scrotal urethrostomy, salivary gland resection, laryngeal tie-back, anal sacculectomy, chest drain placement and incisional gastropexy for the treatment of GDV.
4 | THE FVMA ANNUAL CONFERENCE 2022
With Conf. Reg. Fee: Vets $515 Wet Lab Only Fee: Vets $715 Wet lab registration includes lunch. This seminar series and combined wet lab will introduce the veterinarian to entry-level abdominal ultrasound imaging in the small animal practice. The seminar consists of four, 50-minute lectures. The basic physics, an overview of instrumentation, common artifacts and scanning techniques will be reviewed, as well as normal anatomy and appearance of the abdominal organs. Wet lab participants will be introduced to basic ultrasound image manipulation (knobology), the physics and artifacts of abdominal ultrasound, learn scanning techniques, and learn how to identify normal abdominal structures through the scanning of live animals.

DVM, DACVECC Assisted by: Lenore Bacek, DVM, MS, DACVECC With Conf. Reg. Fee: Vets $515 Wet Lab Only Fee: Vets $715 Wet lab registration includes lunch. Do you ever struggle with the cause of dyspnea in a cat that is too unstable to take radiographs or draw blood for ProBNP levels (cardiac, respiratory, pleural effusion)? Do you ever debate if you can safely give a patient IV fluids or when you should stop giving IV fluid boluses? Have you ever felt frustrated not finding a cause for patients presenting for “ain’t doing right” with no specific clinical signs? Veterinary point-of-care ultrasound (VPOCUS) can help you manage these patients! VPOCUS techniques are rapid, easy-to-learn and practical ultrasound skills that ANY practitioner can apply in every day practice. 10 | THE FVMA ANNUAL CONFERENCE 2022

A lecture explains instrument handling, cleaning, and sharpening; the importance of proper cleaning technique; and probing and charting. Following is a detailed, hands-on wet lab that provides instruction on the proper way to do a complete dental prophylaxis and oral examination including accurate charting. Learn how to properly handle instruments using the latest state of the art equipment taught by some the most highly trained veterinary technicians in veterinary dentistry. There is a low teacher to student ratio to ensure everyone receives individual instruction while probing, cleaning and charting the mouth of a dog and cat using cadaver heads.
This is a one-hour lecture discussing safety, terminology, normal and abnormal anatomy, basic pathology, and labial mounting of dental radiographs followed by hands-on training. Learn how to obtain a diagnostic intraoral radiograph using the latest stateof-the-art equipment, taught by some the most highly trained veterinary technicians in veterinary dentistry. There is a low teacher to student ratio to ensure everyone takes all the images necessary to obtain full mouth radiographs of a dog and cat using cadaver heads. This is the most effective way to learn intraoral dental radiography because it imitates real life patients without the stress of having to monitor anesthesia while trying to learn at the same time.
