Proposed Format
Interactive Session – 2 hours
I would like to present two-hour interactive session that will guide participants through the interpretation of dental radiographs and cone beam CT (CBCT) images in small animal patients. The session is designed to be practical, case-based, and engaging, offering attendees the opportunity to actively participate in clinical problem-solving.

In the first part of the session, we will focus on dental radiography. Participants will be presented with a range of radiographic cases and challenged to identify key findings, formulate differentials, and discuss potential treatment plans. Emphasis will be placed on developing a systematic and reproducible approach to radiograph interpretation.

After a short break, the second part of the session will introduce CBCT-based scenarios. Using real clinical cases, we will explore the added diagnostic value of 3D imaging in complex or ambiguous presentations. Participants will be encouraged to engage with the images, offer interpretations, and consider how CBCT findings influence clinical decision-making.

Throughout the session, the audience will be actively involved in image reading, group discussion, and interactive diagnosis-solving, making this an ideal learning experience for those looking to enhance their diagnostic confidence in dental imaging.

Learning Objectives
To improve the interpretation of dental radiographs in dogs and cats
To introduce a systematic approach to reading CBCT images
To enhance clinical reasoning through case-based discussions
To build confidence in using imaging findings for diagnosis and treatment planning.

Target Audience
General practitioners, veterinary students, and residents with a basic to intermediate level of experience in veterinary dentistry and imaging.
