Veterinary radiology is facing a crisis point. In the next three years, the amount of cases that require a radiologist will increase from 2.5 million per year in North America to over 6 million per year. At the same time, the number of radiologists is remaining fairly consistent, but there are fewer educational opportunities to train new radiologists. How might his issue be addressed? This week on the Veterinary Innovation Podcast, Shawn and Ivan chat with Dr. Seth Wallack, the founder and CEO of Vetology, on how AI in clinical radiology will become vitally helpful in the next few years, improving the workflow of radiologists, and the higher degree of specialization in veterinary medicine.
