gelat Veterinary oftalmology terza edizione 2012 - Educational objectives
- The student should know how to perform and interpret a electroretinographic and audiometric testing
He must know the anatomical physiological bases that determine the electrical activity of the stimulated nervous structures
And he must to perform an audiometric test and an electroretinography - Teaching methods
- the course is an incentive for the execution of electrophysiological testing more frequently running in veterinary medicine for small animals .
In the first part we will learn the standard features of a detection device of evoked potentials .
The second will be practically performed acoustic and visual tests of normal and patients with hearing and visual impairments - Learning verification modality
