Internship program Veterinary Cardiology in Small Animals

Early detection continues to be a determining factor in the management of small animals with cardiac problems. Thus, thanks to advances in radiology, electrocardiography and echocardiography, diagnoses are more accurate. However, many pathologies go unnoticed due to their difficulty to be discovered, which requires an advanced mastery of professionals, especially in the performance of tests, interpretation of results and application of treatments. That is why TECH has created this program, which provides a practical stay in a prestigious clinical center. An environment where the professional will be able, together with specialists in small animal cardiology, to update on the techniques, diagnostic methods and procedures used. All this during 3 intense weeks of practical immersion.

Introduction to the Program

TECH offers you the opportunity to be updated in Veterinary Cardiology by the best specialists"

Sick sinus syndrome, atrioventricular block or mitral valve disease are the most frequent pathologies in small animals that veterinarians currently encounter in their practices. In recent years, scientific studies have provided more in-depth knowledge of these cardiac problems, while technologies have made it possible to perfect the complementary tests performed by means of radiology, electrocardiograms or ultrasound scans.

These advances have enabled the early detection of these diseases, making it possible to administer the necessary treatments and, on occasions, to perform innovative surgical interventions. Thus, the diagnostic technique, the professional's ability to interpret the results and to act are decisive for the patient's well-being. For this reason, TECH has created this Internship program, which introduces the professional to a prestigious clinical center from the very first moment.

It is an eminently practical stay, lasting 3 weeks, where the veterinarian will have the opportunity to update their knowledge in the area of Veterinary Cardiology in Small Animals. A period, where they will be accompanied by specialists in this field, who will show them the state-of-the-art technology used in analysis and exploration, as well as the most effective methods of action. An opportunity to be up to date, in a first class center, that only TECH offers you.
