Full-Circle Veterinary Ultrasound Education: Why SonoPath Is More Than Just a Resource: It’s Your Support Team
By Dr. Eric Lindquist, DVM (Italy), DABVP (Canine & Feline), Cert. IVUSS ,CEO & Founder of SonoPath
In today’s fast-paced veterinary world, it is not enough to just “know” diagnostic imaging. You need to live it confidently, efficiently, and with the kind of support that doesn’t end when the webinar does. If you have ever told yourself “I’m not ready for ultrasound,” let us reassure you: with the right support, structure, and community, you absolutely are.
This is where SonoPath comes in.
I’m Dr. Eric Linquist, DVM (Italy), DABVP (Canine & Feline), Cert. IVUSS, and CEO & Founder of Sonopath.
Last November, I had the chance to meet so many of you in person while lecturing at the London Vet Show. It was an energizing reminder of how passionate, curious, and committed this community truly is to the art of veterinary medicine. Those conversations reaffirmed why we do what we do at SonoPath: to give clinicians real-world tools, practical education, and ongoing support that actually moves the needle in day-to-day practice.
SonoPath is a full-service, full-circle veterinary ultrasound ecosystem built by veterinarians, for veterinarians. Whether you are just starting out with ultrasound or you have been scanning for years, we are here to elevate your skills, support your growth, and help you deliver better patient outcomes.
How do we do this?
Full circle means we are with you. It means we’ve got your back at every stage of your ultrasound journey. It means we are your support team every step of the wave:
• Educational Telemedicine™: We don’t just report, we partner. Our telemedicine services offer specialist reports that make you look good and educational feedback that help you get better, keeping you ahead of the curve for your patients and your professional development.
• LIVE and On-Demand Education: From foundational SDEP® courses (more on this below!) to advanced pathology review, our curriculum is designed to meet you where you are and take you where you want to go.
• Virtual Mentorship: Our team of seasoned sonographers and specialists is just a click away. Need help interpreting a scan? Want feedback on your technique? We are here for you in real time with diagnostic reports and educational support.
• Clinical Support: You are never alone when facing a tough diagnosis.
• Community: Join a community of like-minded veterinary professionals who are passionate about learning, sharing, and growing together.

Why SDEP® Is your Game-Changer
Let’s face it, clinic life is hectic. So, with my decades of experience across hundreds of thousands of ultrasound scans, I developed The Sonographic Diagnostic Efficiency Protocol (SDEP®). SDEP® is a standardized, step-by-step, 17-point scanning protocol for a complete Abdominal scan (7-points for Echo). It is designed for efficiency and repeatability, to improve sonographer skill, optimize imaging consistency, and enhance diagnostic accuracy across veterinary ultrasound.
You can learn it with us in a weekend.
Not only is the SDEP® the first published sonography protocol in veterinary medicine, but we know that our SDEP® Hands-On & LIVE Virtual Wet Labs are the best way to learn diagnostic imaging. This is not by accident but by design. Our LIVE virtual SDEP® training connects you with real experts, in real time, for real results. Whether it is a quick question or a deep dive into a complex case, we are here to help you make confident, informed decisions.
We have made it easier than ever to access expert guidance in diagnostic imaging without leaving your practice. Couple your SDEP® training with SonoPath’s incredible after-training support with our Educational Telemedicine™, and you have a whole virtual team behind you helping you get better, faster diagnoses while staying ahead of the curve.
