Educational module “A cycle of master classes from a practicing veterinarian on ultrasound diagnostics in animals”

On the basis of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, within the framework of strategic cooperation for 3-4 year students, an educational module “A cycle of master classes from a practicing veterinarian on ultrasound diagnostics in animals” was conducted. Ultrasound examination is a simple, affordable and non-contraindicated diagnostic method that demonstrates the state of internal organs. The essence of the technology lies in the fact that ultrasonic waves are reflected from tissues, collecting into an integral picture, which is fixed on the monitor.
