New Rat Femoral Vein Catheterization course now available!

Fall is nearly here, school is back in session, and the world of education here at Instech presents an array of opportunities for professional growth. Whether you are looking to acquire new skills or you are an experienced surgeon, our virtual rodent surgical training courses can benefit you. The courses offer everything including general surgical guidelines and instruments, patency optimization, the surgical procedure with video, as well as catheter and VAB™ maintenance. 

Our first virtual training course was introduced in April of 2023 and focuses on Rat Jugular Vein Catheterization. Then, in succession we launched Mouse Jugular Vein Catheterization, Mouse Carotid Artery Catheterization, and most recently Rat Femoral Vein Catheterization. 

Each live course is $495 and lasts approximately three hours. Following course completion students will have password-protected access to all the training materials (including a detailed surgical SOP, video of the surgery, and the PowerPoints) presented during the course for 60 days.

Course completion qualifies for CEUs with AALAS and ASR.
