The facilities are composed of :

  •     3 rooms (blocks) equipped with anaesthesia and respiratory assistance equipments, including 1 room dedicated to the study of vascularisation (with a C-arm)
  •     1 training room for the management of 9 animals
  •     1 fasting room
  •     1 anaesthesia room
  •     5 post-intervention rooms accomodating up to 40 sheep/goats
  •     1 heated and air-conditioned pre/post-intervention room dedicated to pigs, equipped with 9 boxes which can accommodate from 9 to 20 animals depending on their weight.

The rooms can be equipped with electric scalpels, monitoring devices, laparoscopic surgery column and mobile equipment (3D-doppler ultrasound scanner, confocal laser endomicroscopy).
