This postgraduate diploma is the best investment you can make in selecting a refresher program to update your knowledge in Bone Physio-Pathology"

The teaching team of this Expert in Bone Physio-Pathology has made a careful selection of the different state-of-the-art techniques for experienced professionals working in the veterinary field.  

This postgraduate diploma addresses the most relevant and significant osteology topics for the professional in order to achieve specialization in bone diseases due to malformations, aberrations in function and alterations due to forces that cause fractures. 

To achieve this specialized knowledge of bone, we must emphasize the key points of osteogenesis, i.e. bone formation. 

On the other hand, arthroscopy has undergone a great boost thanks to the great technological advances at the end of the 20th century with the use of fiber optics instead of glass and mini-cameras with color separation for better intra-articular vision. 

Nowadays, thanks to arthroscopy, joints rarely have to be opened, pain is much less and the patient can walk for a few hours after the treatment, achieving a much greater improvement. Although arthroscopy requires significant investment and ongoing training, its use has spread worldwide, making it a common practice in veterinary hospitals. 

In addition, this training includes 20 of the most important orthopedic diseases affecting dogs and cats, as well as specialized theoretical and practical information to reach a correct diagnosis. It develops the most important characteristics of each of these diseases in relation to breed, sex and incidence in the veterinary clinic.  

The teachers in this specialization are university professors with between 10 and 50 years of classroom and hospital experience. They are professors from schools on different continents, with different ways of doing surgery and with world-renowned surgical techniques. This makes this postgraduate diploma a unique specialization program, different from any other that may be offered at this moment in the rest of the universities. 

As it is an online postgraduate diploma, the student is not conditioned by fixed schedules or the need to move to another physical location, but can access the contents at any time of the day, balancing their work or personal life with their academic life.
