━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ overview ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ In recent years, I think more and more facilities are introducing CT. It is true that CT is a very powerful tool for diagnosis and surgical planning, but a certain amount of knowledge is required to use it effectively. Unlike the medical field, where radiographers are responsible for imaging and radiologists are responsible for interpretation, At least in Japan, I think that in many facilities, veterinarians will be responsible for taking pictures and interpreting images themselves. On the other hand, veterinary universities rarely teach CT imaging methods or image engineering, and there are not enough textbooks on image interpretation. Have you ever tried something like laying it down on a V-shaped mat, using a preset that someone has set for you, adding a contrast agent, and taking a 3-phase image? In small animal clinical practice, we have the opportunity to image everything from very small dogs weighing less than 2 kg to large dogs weighing over 60 kg. There is a greater variety of subjects than humans, and patients are generally under anesthesia during imaging. You need to be proficient enough to quickly adjust imaging parameters to suit the patient and test purpose. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Purpose target ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Learn about CT imaging parameters and contrast theory, Then, by learning how to interpret each part, you will be able to think about and put into practice the optimal imaging method based on the tentative diagnosis. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ What you can learn in this eClass ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ In this class, we will first learn about CT imaging parameters and contrast theory, and then learn how to interpret each part of the image, with the goal of being able to think about and put into practice the optimal imaging method based on a tentative diagnosis. Masu. CT examinations are also similar to plain X-ray examinations in that they are digital imaging techniques that use X-rays. Naturally, when considering CT imaging parameters, knowledge of imaging techniques for plain X-ray examinations is a prerequisite. Therefore, in this class, before learning about CT, you will learn about the imaging methods for plain X-ray examinations. ━━━━━━ Lecturer introduction ━━━━━━ ◎Mr. Genya Shinbo Hokkaido University Graduate School of Veterinary Medicine/Affiliated Animal Hospital Specially Appointed Assistant Professor Doctor of Veterinary Medicine ━━━━━━━━━ Recommended for these people ━━━━━━━━━ ・Veterinarians who are not confident in setting imaging parameters ・Those who want to provide grounded guidance to juniors
