Welcome, curious minds!
Radimal Case Rounds is where veterinary professionals come together to explore the most compelling and complex cases our radiologists encounter. Get ready to put your diagnostic hat on – we’ll follow the clues from history to imaging to interpretation, uncovering the story behind each case.
🔍 This Session: Interpreting Five Small Animal Cases with AI and specialist insights
In this round, we’ll walk through five real-world small animal cases: a greenstick fracture in a puppy, congestive heart failure in a senior dog, a pregnant patient with incidental findings, a small intestinal obstruction, and an aggressive bone lesion with stifle degeneration.
Each case includes AI-generated and/or board-certified specialist radiology reports. Together, we’ll walk through the case history, review the imaging, and break down the thinking behind each interpretation to see how these approaches work together in clinical practice.
If you love digging into details, spotting patterns, and solving diagnostic puzzles, this session was made for you. Join a community of curious veterinary professionals who thrive on clinical challenges and fresh perspectives!
Learning Objectives
- Identify key radiographic findings in a variety of small animal cases, including orthopedic, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and reproductive presentations.
- Describe how imaging findings relate to clinical history and presenting signs in each case.
- Compare and interpret radiology reports generated by AI and specialists, noting areas of alignment and divergence in terminology, detail, and clinical relevance.
- Assess how imaging results can inform diagnostic priorities, treatment planning, and communication with pet owners.
- Reflect on the role of AI-assisted tools in supporting radiographic interpretation within the context of veterinary practice, without replacing clinical judgment.
