Course Overview
In this 4.5-hour online course we comprehensively cover intraoral radiography in the dog. Our primary objective is to provide the learner with the skills and knowledge to obtain diagnostic images and to be able to interpret them efficiently and accurately in the clinical setting. We will cover the equipment required to take intraoral radiographs, review the normal radiographic anatomy, provide detailed explanations on how to obtain each projection, and how to correct common mistakes. The lessons will ultimately help the participant to systematically interpret pathological processes using real clinical cases. This course is composed of eight lessons covering understanding the benefits of intraoral radiology, radiographic equipment, normal radiographic anatomy refresher, principles of intraoral radiology, obtaining intraoral radiographs: step by step, troubleshooting common mistakes, orienting intraoral radiographs – labial mounting, and interpreting intraoral radiographs.
