DVM, DACVS Co-instructor: Dr. Kristin Coleman, DVM, MS, DACVS-SA 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. Videos will be viewed in the lab so no time is wasted between seeing the procedure and then performing it on the cadaver. Topics have been chosen that represent surgical conditions commonly seen in veterinary practice and will include: scrotal urethrostomy, salivary gland resection, laryngeal tieback, anal sacculectomy, chest drain placement and incisional gastropexy for the treatment of GDV.

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.

Fee: Vets $515 Wet Lab Only Fee: Vets $715 Wet lab registration includes lunch. This seminar series and combined wet lab are designed for veterinarians who want to further their training in small animal ultrasound. Lectures will briefly review ultrasound physics and artifacts and assist the participants in finetuning the image. Normal intra-abdominal structure will be reviewed and abnormal intra-abdominal pathology will be emphasized. Wet lab participants will gain experience in completing a routine small abdominal ultrasound examination, knowledge of normal sonographic anatomy and appearance of commonly identified pathologies. Some of the more challenging intra-abdominal structures to image will be emphasized. Interaction between the radiologist and the participants will be encouraged, and the attendees will have an opportunity to address personal areas of concern in their understanding of abdominal ultrasound scanning techniques.

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.

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 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 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 handson training. Learn how to obtain a diagnostic intraoral radiograph 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 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.

FunkLights- Antibacterial Phototherapy MRSA developed resistance to antibiotics in less than seventy years yet remains as susceptible to antibacterial blue light (aBL) at it was a million years ago. Pathogens that infect mammalian skin weaken and breakdown when repeatedly energized, even killed with enough intensity and exposure duration. This “Kryptonite” that destroys SuperBugs can now be produced by emitting diodes (LEDs). FunkLights captures this new potential by integrating the highest intensity antibactieral LEDs into the most powerful flashlight technologies to create the ultimate weapons to combat bacterial infection. Photobiological safety (IEC62471) testing performed at a U.S. FDA Lab ensures all FunkLights comply with eye and skin exposure standards. This enables inclinic treatment with the option of sending lights home with the animal for continued prescriptive daily treatment. Whether an augment to antibiotics or standalone treatment, aBL is the best way to help infected animals heal faster. Studies of Interest 1.
