It will also cover will also cover what defines a good radiographic image, using real-life examples such as ‘what a lateral elbow should look like’.
The webinar will include an overview of legal obligations around ionising radiation.
The session will be presented by VET.CT radiologist Dr Lisa Friling (pictured), who said: "Improving radiation safety in practice does require change, which can be challenging.
"However, this change is important - to improve health and welfare of patients and the safety of staff, and it is absolutely possible with the right support and guidance.”
The recording will be added to VET.CT’s free X-Pert Radiation Safety Centre, which includes downloadable toolkits for small animal and equine practice, including positioning guides, top tips, chemical restraint protocols and case studies.
