[Why is this online course special?]
In this course, you will learn using educational materials developed by Dr. Søren Boysen, one of the world’s leading experts in the field of veterinary POCUS. Dr. Boysen is a key figure in the development of international veterinary POCUS guidelines.
This course is designed for all veterinarians who wish to apply POCUS in clinical practice. It is suitable regardless of years of experience or area of specialization. For those interested, the program can also be combined with a hands-on training session.
[Can I learn practical skills?]

Participants will have the opportunity to operate the probe themselves and receive repeated guidance from instructors, helping build confidence and practical skills for real clinical settings. Please note that space for the hands-on course is limited, so we recommend registering early.
