The last 7 of those years were solely dedicated to performing and teaching ultrasound at the UF Veterinary Hospitals and various conferences.
Ms. Mauragis co-authored the Handbook of Radiographic Positioning for Veterinary Technicians and was a contributing author for Small Animal Radiography: Essential Positioning Guide, and Small Animal Ultrasonography.

The objective for this course is for the attendee to leave with the knowledge of how to recognize an ultrasound case, incorporate ultrasound into their practice, and how to create a study for someone to interpret, of the five main abdominal organs. This will be accomplished through learning the basic knobs necessary to create a diagnostic image, how to tweak that image with these knobs, do measurements, and follow a scanning protocol. Recognizing artifacts will be covered, as well as how to quickly assess a trauma case with ultrasound. This is a great veterinary ultrasound course as well. Hands-on scanning will reinforce the didactic portion, and recognize normal tissue. Attendees will earn 14 RACE-approved CE credits.
Due to COVID-19, there has been a change to this course format from a 2-day onsite course (1st day lecture, 2nd day of hands-on) to a 7 Hours of Online Didactic to be sent out two weeks prior to class, and 7 hours of live hands on scanning on April 2nd and July 15th.
