An open city for those willing to discover it, where culture, gastronomy, business, leisure and entertainment are blended.

SEVC Workshops 2018 Workshops
Each year, the SEVC provides hands-on laboratories with leading international instructors and the latest technology and equipment to help you enhance your practice skills. The SEVC’s workshops are another unique feature that enable delegates to gain hands-on laboratory experience and learn new techniques by working in small groups with world-class instructors using the latest equipment on the market. The workshops will be presented in English, but instructors will provide assistance with other languages. Registration for the workshops does not require registration for the SEVC Scientific Programme. The SEVC workshops and laboratories adhere strictly to the ethical oversight directions and approval under Spanish regulations in their use of live animals. The number of animals used is always minimal. Every effort is made to avoid situations and procedures that would cause anxiety and pain in the animals, and appropriate sedation and analgesia are used whenever necessary. No animal will be euthanised to meet the needs of any SEVC workshop.
Preliminary list of labs for SEVC 2018:
• Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Cytology and Blood Smears, But Were Afraid to Ask
• Canine Abdominal Ultrasonography • Ultrasonographic Identification of Abdominal Pathologies. Clinical Cases • Challenging Cases in Thoracic and Abdominal Radiology • What Should a Practitioner Know When Viewing MRI and CT Images of Clinical Cases? Other preliminary workshops:
• Small Animal Dentistry • Behaviour • Exotics • Orthopaedics • Emergency • Ophthalmology
