WATERBURY – Dr Donna Harper will be at Post University in Waterbury for two seminars on Infrared Thermography.

The seminars will be offered in two one-week sections starting with Basic Principles of Infrared Thermography from June 13-17. This seminar will cover introductory information and training for those just starting out in this field.

Clinical Applications of Infrared Thermographic Principles will follow from June 19-23 and will be intensive and provide in-depth information for those who have already had some experience using the equipment and wish to increase their skill level in both camera operation and application.

The seminars are open to veterinarians, veterinarian-sponsored technicians and other professionals or anyone who has already attended seminars offered anywhere in the U.S. who would like to get further help improving their ‘case study’ skills.
