Veterinarians who are well-qualified practitioners of thoracic radiology will be better trained to care for animals with any condition in that anatomical area"

Chest radiography is essential for the diagnosis of most of the conditions affecting this anatomical region and, on many occasions, the radiology findings are sufficient to make a fairly accurate diagnosis. In these cases, it is very important to take the utmost care with the technical quality of the chest X-rays. The use of incorrect values, poor patient positioning or poor imaging technique can greatly affect the interpretation of the images.

Similarly, it is worth mentioning the importance that digital radiology is acquiring, a process from which higher contrast resolutions are obtained than with the analog ones, a factor which, especially in the thorax, translates into better definition of some anatomical structures, such as the pulmonary vessels or the walls of the bronchial tubes of greater diameter. All these advances that have been made in this field, are brought together in this very complete program, with the aim of offering veterinarians specific high-level training. 

In short, it is a program based on scientific evidence and daily practice, with all the nuances that each professional can contribute, so that the student can keep it in mind and compare it with the bibliography and enriched by the critical evaluation that every professional must have in mind.

Thus, throughout this program, the students will go through all the current approaches to the different challenges of their profession. A high-level step that will become a process of improvement, not only on a professional level, but also on a personal level. In addition, TECH assumes a social commitment: to help the updating of highly qualified professionals and to develop their personal, social and work skills during the development of the same. And, to do so, it will not only take you through the theoretical knowledge offered, but will show you another way of studying and learning which is more organic, simpler and more efficient. It works to maintain motivation and to create a passion for learning; it encourages thinking and the development of critical thinking.
