BVNA Revision App Ready for Download
A Radiology Revision App for vet nurses has been designed ready for BVNA Congress.

The British Veterinary Nursing Association has joined forces with leading IT provider, AT Veterinary Systems, to produce a handy radiology revision app for veterinary nurses, in time for the BVNA Congress this weekend.

Split into two sections, the app comprises Quick Revision and Full Revision modes. The Quick Revision is a spot test of twenty multiple choice questions with every score recorded on a scoreboard, allowing you to compete with yourself to get better and better. Full Revision mode is a quiz of sixty questions, ensuring you learn all you need to know about the use of radiology in the veterinary practice.

All 125 questions are randomly generated to reinforce every aspect of the subject, and the layout makes it quick and easy to use.

Perfect for a veterinary nurse in training, perhaps with approaching exams, or  simply wanting to test and refresh their knowledge, the BVNA Radiology Revision App costs £2.99 and is available now from the App Store.

For more information and to download the app, click here.

BVNA Congress is the largest sole veterinary nursing congress in the UK. It takes place on the 7th to the 9th October at Kettering Conference Centre in Northamptonshire. For more information, click here.
