COURSE DESCRIPTION

This practical course was designed to provide veterinarians from mixed or equine practice with the theoretical and especially the practical skills to competently examine every joint and tendon sheath of the equine front- and hindlimb ultrasonographically. A panel of international experts who have dedicated a significant proportion of their careers to musculoskeletal ultrasonography are involved with this course. The first day will focus on ultrasonography of the frontlimb and on the second day the hindlimb will be covered.

The following highly illustrated lectures (in English, no translation but with German moderation) will be held in the mornings:

How to get the most out of your ultrasound machine
Ultrasonographic anatomy and conditions of the Foot and Pastern
Fetlock and Digital Flexor Tendon Sheath
Carpus and Carpal Sheath
Elbow and Shoulder Joint
Tarsus, Tarsal Bursae and Sheath
Stifle Joint
Hip Joint and Pelvis

Between both afternoons, 7 hours of small group sessions (2 – 4 attendees / ultrasound machine) will give attendees plenty of opportunity to put theory into practice on live horses under the supervision of the specialists. There will furthermore be plenty of time for discussions and each attendee will rotate through the following practical stations:

Coffin, Pastern and Fetlock Joints
Digital Flexor Tendon Sheath
Carpus and Carpal Sheath
Elbow and Shoulder Joints
Tarsus, Tarsal Bursae and Sheath
Stifle Joint

The course fee includes lunches at a restaurant, coffee/tea breaks, a wine and cheese reception, extensive course notes and a certificate of attendance. Attendees can choose to only attend the lectures (= Lectures Only) on this course or can register for the entire course (= Lectures and Practical Sessions). On Early course registration is recommended as there are only a limited number of places available due to the highly practical nature of this course.
