Details
Join us for the ISELP 3D Imaging Module, featuring some of the top experts in the field. This course will focus heavily on integrating 3D Imaging as a diagnostic tool. This module will begin with the basics of image acquisition focusing on MRI and CT. We will discuss the image characteristics of normal tissue and how to choose the correct modality(ies) and region to image. We will discuss some of the characteristics of lesions and image interpretation. This course is designed to be very interactive, and will focus heavily on group based imaging workshops.
A Special Message From The President of ISELP. . .
"Join us for the ISELP 3D Imaging Module, featuring some of the top experts in the field. This course will focus heavily on integrating 3D Imaging as a diagnostic tool. This module will begin with the basics of image acquisition focusing on MRI and CT. We will discuss the image characteristics of normal tissue and how to choose the correct modality(ies) and region to image. We will discuss some of the characteristics of lesions and image interpretation. This course is designed to be very interactive, and will focus heavily on group based imaging workshops.
The genesis of the idea for ISELP’s 3D Imaging module for practitioners dates back to the early days of imaging for nuclear scintigraphy and MRI. These interactive meetings were not just for practitioners who had the technology but for practitioners who wanted to know when and how to utilize these new techniques in their practice. This approach with ISELP’s anatomic and case-based imaging is a unique meeting. In the morning sessions, you will learn to understand MRI and CT approaches including which technology to use and when. You will spend the afternoons reviewing cases on your computer in a group setting and then discuss the imaging findings and case outcomes with your fellow participants and instructors. In two days, you will have a working understanding of the use of MRI & CT in a clinical setting. I am looking forward to seeing you there!"
- Kent Allen, DVM, ISELP Certified, President & Executive Director, ISELP
WHAT OTHERS HAD TO SAY ABOUT LAST YEAR'S 3D IMAGING COURSE. . .
"The meeting was truly a life changing experience! Thank you ISELP"
"It's critical to our profession to have meetings like this"
"I recently took a course, with a similar topic, online. But this one. . .where you can raise your hand and get a radiologist to walk over and talk one on one to talk about the cases which are displayed right on your computer was absolutely invaluable!"
"Outstanding program. 3D Imaging is such a dynamic topic and I feel that this had a good balance between overall preparations and actual image reading time and feedback. Only ISELP could do this!"
