A four-part learning series for nurses with Vicky Hawkins.
The series addresses how to produce high-quality diagnostic radiographs: an essential skill for any member of the practice team but with vet nurses commonly the ones taking on this responsibility.
It covers everything from setting up the room and top-tips on patient positioning, through to how to identify when a radiograph is diagnostic, and how to know when it needs to be re-taken.
