Ultrasound educator Dr. Camilla Edwards, DVM, CertAVP, MRCVS is back to teach us how to rapidly identify palpable abdominal masses, characterize tumors, investigate spread, and offer prognosis.

You’ll discover how easy and affordable it is to add wireless ultrasound to your veterinary practice. Dr. Edwards will teach how to:

  • Perform a systematic ultrasound examination of the abdomen to determine the mass origin
  • Demonstrate the ultrasound characteristics of the tumour – size, shape, echogenicity
  • Investigate spread or invasion of local organs or lymph nodes
  • Perform ultrasound-guided sampling for a definitive diagnosis and prognosis
  • Monitor changes over time to guide treatment and decision making

Ultrasound is a powerful tool for guiding the evaluation and diagnosis process. In this webinar Dr. Camilla Edwards will explore the role of wireless ultrasound in diagnosing palpable abdominal masses in veterinary patients, providing hands-on techniques for a comprehensive abdominal survey and a more definitive diagnosis.

The accurate diagnosis of a palpable abdominal mass can pose significant challenges in veterinary medicine. Dr. Edwards has been performing veterinary ultrasound for many years and has accumulated a variety of case studies. Observing these cases will provide you with tips and tricks needed to identify, locate, and characterize abdominal masses using the latest advancements in handheld wireless ultrasound.

Dr. Edwards with teach us how to differentiate types of abdominal masses, distinguishing between solid masses (such as tumors or enlarged organs) and fluid-filled masses (such as cysts or abscesses) – an important step in determining the potential causes and guiding further diagnostic steps. You’ll learn to assess structures surrounding the abdominal mass, including blood vessels and organs, assessing blood flow within and around the mass using Doppler.

Next, Dr. Edwards will demonstrate how to obtain a definitive diagnosis using ultrasound-guided procedures to safely obtain a tissue sample for analysis, increasing the accuracy of the procedure while reducing potential complications.

Beyond the initial diagnosis, Dr. Edwards will demonstrate the ongoing value of point-of-care ultrasound for patient monitoring over time. She’ll discuss how serial ultrasound examinations can be performed to monitor the size and characteristics of the abdominal mass, tracking any changes and guiding treatment decisions, such as determining if the mass is growing or if intervention is required.

Dr. Edwards will be joined by your host and emergency physician Dr. Oron Frenkel and sonographer Shelley Guenther who will showcase live scanning with the new Clarius C7 Vet HD3! Don’t miss this educational webinar – register today to brush up on your practical point-of-care ultrasound skills.
