For the last decade Esaote has maintained its position as a worldwide market leader in Veterinary imaging and has continued to remain at the forefront of Veterinary education.
So far Esaote’s focus on education has been successfully channelled through five editions of “MRI in Veterinary Medicine” which has proven to be an excellent forum for educational and social exchange between professionals involved in veterinary medicine. The 6th edition of the meeting will be held for the first time outside of Europe, in Miami, USA. The choice of location this year was driven by our aim to further extend our international reach and to cater to the educational needs of the large community of U.S. based MRI users and clients that has grown over the years.
The scientific programme includes a wide range of topics from MRI physics to more clinical content. The scope is to give participants a sound understanding of best practice when executing MRI in Veterinary applications and appropriate tools for improving their diagnostic capabilities when addressing even more complex cases. Moreover, in line with tradition, the lectures will be delivered by expert speakers from Europe and the U.S.
In addition to appreciating the high quality of the program content, we hope that an attractive backdrop like Miami will also give participants the opportunity to combine work with a little pleasure.
