When: Wednesday, September 7, 2022. 2:00 pm EST (90-minute presentation, 30-minute Q&A) Using Advanced Imagery in Surgery – Dr. Scott Echols Advanced imaging modalities such as CT, MRI, ultrasound, etc have improved dramatically in the past decade creating better visualization of normal and abnormal anatomy. The imaging can be performed on living or deceased animals to create live view and reference material studies, respectfully. Along with the newer imaging technology come the different formats in which to view the data sets. These formats include virtual reality, augmented reality, and more each with pros and cons. New non-formaldehyde preserved cadaver learning models that are compatible with advanced imaging have recently become an option for teaching and learning surgical skills. Whether representing normal or abnormal tissues, the information gained from the new technology can be used to better guide surgical decisions. This discussion will cover the use of these newer teaching and learning modalities and their potential uses in avian (or other animal) surgery.
