Why is it important to get certified?

Lung ultrasound is becoming increasingly important, but mastering the technique comes with some challenges. Certification functions as a failsafe to safeguard the rational use of antimicrobials. In order to reduce antimicrobial use, while ensuring animal welfare is maintained, diagnostic accuracy is of critical importance. Once certified, you can confidently start scanning on your own, without the fear of misdiagnosing calves.

  • A wildfire of lung ultrasound techniques are on the rise, each with their own qualities and pitfalls. By focussing on performance in field conditions, the qTUS course aims to be a quality label for diagnosis of pneumonia by practitioners.

  • Hands-on practical training with trained operators can improve your sensitivity with > 20% compared to participants who only take the online class.
