Dr. Shannon P. Holmes, DVM, MSc, DACVR, explains how advanced MRI pulse sequences can get more diagnostic value from every canine and feline scan. This matters when patients often get only one chance at imaging. Topics include: HASTE MR myelography and 3D FSE (SPACE/CUBE/VISTA) for spinal imaging Dixon fat suppression Susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) for hemorrhage Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) for stroke, tumors and abscesses MR angiography, MP-RAGE, VIBE, CISS and m

Can AI halve your MRI scan times without sacrificing image quality? In this Hallmarq Fall Series webinar, Steve Roberts, PhD, Chief Technical Advisor for MRI at Hallmarq Veterinary Imaging, takes us inside the technologies changing veterinary MRI. See how iNav motion correction rescues images from patients who move, and how deep learning tools are cutting scan times in dogs and standing horses: PAICE removes image noise, and SNAP fills in k-space data that was only partly acq

In this webinar, Dr. Bethany Boyd discusses her recent publication on the phenotype, diagnostic findings, treatment, and outcomes of paroxysmal dyskinesia in Dachshund dogs. Paroxysmal dyskinesia is a movement disorder characterized by recurrent self-limiting episodes of hyperkinetic involuntary movements that can appear like cramping.

In this Journal Club webinar sponsored by Hallmarq Veterinary Imaging, Dr Anna Knebel discusses her recent publication on MRI assessment of cats with suspected seizure activity.

Dr. Rochelle Paterson joins us in this webinar to discuss her study on Cavalier King Charles Spaniel dogs with generalized absence seizures. Absence seizures are classified as a type of generalized onset non-motor seizure with clinical symptoms, including unresponsiveness and staring spells. Absence seizures in people are generally seen in children aged 5 to 15 years and occur in multiple genetic generalized epilepsies, including childhood absence epilepsy (CAE), juvenile abs

This lecture discusses the value of the different diagnostic imaging tests available to determining treatment options and prognosis in dogs and cats with spinal disease, as well as the value of these tests to clients relative to the cost. The goal of this session is to help in the consideration of value judgments in strategically planning diagnostic imaging for patients presenting with clinical signs related to their spine.

Dr. Philippa Johnson, a board-certified veterinary imager, reviews a logical and thorough approach to the interpretation of suspected brain tumors in dogs and cats. Starting with using specific imaging criteria to prioritize differential diagnoses, Dr. Johnson also talks about how to differentiate between neoplasms, abscesses, and hematoma and how to correlate the location and imaging features of a mass to the clinical presentation of the affected patient.

In this webinar, Dr. Laurent Garosi explores meningoencephalomyelitis, focusing on non-infectious causes (NIME), which are more common in dogs, versus infectious etiologies frequently seen in cats. He discusses various NIME subtypes, including SRMA, GME, NME, NLE, which are practically termed meningoencephalomyelitis of unknown origin (MUO). Attendees will learn how understanding underlying disease mechanisms and histopathology can enhance the interpretation of MRI findings i

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has become an essential diagnostic tool in veterinary neurology. It provides detailed images of soft tissues, including the brain, spinal cord, and surrounding structures. Understanding how to interpret canine MRI scans is crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. This guide offers practical insights into reading these scans effectively. Understanding the Basics of Canine MRI Scans MRI uses magnetic fields and radio waves to creat

In the first of four spring 2026 webinars sponsored by Hallmarq Veterinary Imaging, Dr. Marios Charalambous provides an overview of the pathophysiology, investigation and treatment of emergency seizure presentations with a focus and status epilepticus and cluster seizures in dogs and cats.
