How could you take full advantage of your MRI system’s capabilities? Esaote’s focus on continuing education give you the possibility to join this Vet MRI hands on training course.
You will learn from veterinary imaging experts and share experiences with other Vet MRI users. Attendees will be divided into groups for case lab and live sessions on the Vet MRI Grande system to experience how to optimize sequence parameters, position the patient and target the body structures to be studied with the proper coil.
Don’t lose this unique occasion to be provided with practical guidelines in order to produce high resolution images.
TO BOOST INTERACTION THE HANDS-ON-TRAINING SESSION WILL BE LIMITED.
