The SEVC 2017 Conference invites veterinarians to submit abstracts either as FREE COMMUNICATIONS relating to clinical research, both prospective and retrospective, or CASE REPORTS that present new or alternative information of interest to small animal or exotic animal clinicians. Case reports should be based on three or more clinical cases of the same disease. All abstracts must be presented in poster format. Original work only will be accepted.

1. REGISTRATION OF THE FREE COMMUNICATION OR CASE REPORT • To send your free communication or clinical case study, go to www.sevc.info.

2. EVALUATION AND ACCEPTANCE OF THE WORK Once the summaries have been evaluated, the authors will be informed as to whether or not their essay has been accepted within 8 weeks of the acceptance deadline. In some cases, or when considered necessary, authors will be asked to make modifications or corrections to some aspects of their poster.

SEVC Workshops 2017

The SEVC’s workshops are another unique feature that enable delegates to gain hands-on laboratory experience and learn new techniques by working in small groups with world-class instructors using the latest equipment on the market.

The workshops will be presented in English, but instructors will provide assistance with other languages. Registration for the workshops does not require registration for the SEVC Scientific Programme.

The SEVC workshops and laboratories adhere strictly to the ethical oversight directions and approval under Spanish regulations in t heir use of live animals. The number of animals used is always minimal. Every effort is made to avoid situations and procedures that would cause anxiety and pain in the animals, and appropriate sedation and analgesia are used whenever necessary. No animal will be euthanised to meet the needs of any SEVC workshop.

Preliminary list of labs for SEVC 2017:

• Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Cytology and Blood Smears, But Were Afraid to Ask!

• Canine Abdominal Ultrasonography • Ultrasonographic Identification of Abdominal Pathologies. Clinical Cases • Challenging Cases in Thoracic and Abdominal Radiology • What Should a Practitioner Know When Viewing MRI and CT Images of Clinical Cases?

Other preliminary workshops:

• Small Animal Dentistry • Behaviour • Exotics • Orthopaedics • Emergency • Ophthalmology
