The Hanseklinik für Pferde recently celebrated its clinic expansion with a veterinary conference and an accompanying industry exhibition. The event on May 4, 2024 was accredited for continuing education by the ATF (Akademie für tierärztliche Fortbildung) and brought together speakers who shared their knowledge and experience.
The expansion, already the second in three years, includes a QALIBRA CT scanner, an enlarged surgical area, additional examination rooms and a new dental unit, all intended to improve the care and treatment of horses. The event was hosted by Dr. Jens Körner, Dr. Stephan Leser and Dr. Olivier Brandenberger.
The morning session of the conference covered various aspects of veterinary medicine, from current developments and case studies in ophthalmology to diagnostic methods such as electroretinography in horses and important differential diagnoses in respiratory disease.
In the afternoon, the speakers presented unusual dental cases and the new QALIBRA CT scanning technology. Further topics included ultrasound examination of the pelvis, pain management in colic, and adductor problems in horses and riders.
The full-day industry exhibition gave participants insight into new developments and trends in the industry. As is usual at the Hanseklinik, exhibitors presented their products and services in the horses' stalls and at other locations on the clinic grounds and informed visitors directly. Participants also used the opportunity to tour the expanded clinic facilities.
Catering was provided by chef Cornelia Poletto and the five-star hotel Landhaus Wachtelhof. The breaks also offered an opportunity for networking and discussion among colleagues. Discussions continued into the late evening.
Organizing events that serve continuing education and also offer a platform for exchange between professionals has become a small tradition at the Hanseklinik für Pferde. This year's conference continued this tradition of bringing the veterinary community together and supporting progress in equine medicine. The event combined professional exchange with the opportunity to learn about the latest products and services from the industry.
