In the field of Vascular Surgery there has been a constant evolution in the detection of diseases sponsored by advances in diagnostic equipment, as well as the techniques used for it. Advances that result in the appropriate choice of treatment and in the improvement of the results for the patient's health.

A scenario that leads specialists in Vascular Surgery to be constantly updating their knowledge in this field, according to the latest scientific evidence. For this reason, TECH has decided to design this 6-month program, where the graduate will be aware of the most relevant advances in diagnostic methods in Vascular Pathology.

This is an intensive program of 450 teaching hours, which will allow the graduate to delve into peripheral arterial disease, coronary artery disease, venous insufficiency and thrombosis or the pathogenesis and consequences of diabetic vasculopathy, among other vascular diseases. In addition, this educational option will place special emphasis on the evaluation procedures currently available and their relevance in the interpretation of the results provided.

All this will be possible thanks to the multitude of teaching resources provided by TECH, including video summaries of each topic, videos in detail, complementary readings and simulations of clinical case studies. Furthermore, thanks to the Relearning method, based on the continuous repetition of the content throughout the course, the graduate will reduce the long hours of study and memorization.

This is an excellent opportunity to improve skills in this field through a flexible university proposal. The medical professional only needs a digital device with an internet connection to visualize, at any time of the day, the syllabus hosted on the virtual platform. Undoubtedly, an advanced educational option, which adapts to the real needs of the health sector.
