Screening for Canine Abdomen Conditions Just Got Better with Vetology’s New and Updated Classifiers
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
San Diego, CA — Dec. 12, 2024 — Vetology Innovations, LLC is excited to unveil its latest advancements in veterinary artificial intelligence with the release of new and updated classifiers for canine abdomen conditions. These updates, now live on the Vetology platform, extend the screening capabilities of our virtual AI radiology reports.
“At Vetology, innovation is driven by the needs of the veterinary community,” said Dr. Seth Wallack, DACVR, President and Founder of Vetology. “These new classifiers are a testament to our commitment to providing tools that make a real difference in patient care and clinical decision-making. By combining user feedback with rigorous testing, we’ve created a smarter, more reliable diagnostic tool.”
The updated classifiers address common conditions in the canine abdomen that can be challenging to diagnose, including hepatomegaly, splenic masses, nephroliths, and gastrointestinal obstructions. Each of our existing classifiers has been retrained, validated, and reviewed by board-certified radiologists to ensure the highest standards of specificity and sensitivity are achieved in this latest update.
What's New?
Eric Goldman, President of Vetology, highlighted the technical milestones achieved in this release. “Our goal was to refine and expand our AI without disrupting clinical workflows. These updates represent a significant step forward, combining advanced machine learning and computer vision with practical, real-world applications.”
The number of classifiers in the canine abdomen alone now stands at 21, of which 14 are new. Eric Goldman continued, adding: “this update underscores our commitment to delivering real-time support for veterinarians in identifying and addressing complex conditions.”
Improved Performance on Existing Classifiers: Using direct feedback from Vetology clients, our existing classifiers underwent retraining to enhance sensitivity and specificity.
Expanded Diagnostic Capabilities: With our increased range of identifiable markers of disease and obstruction, the 14 new classifiers offer more actionable insights, offering veterinarians greater confidence in their diagnoses.
Refined Report Format: Modeled after the feline abdomen release, the new report style emphasizes clarity and actionable screening results, mirroring the format of a board-certified radiologist’s report.
“Our team has worked tirelessly to bring these advancements to life,” said Cory Clemmons, Chief Technology Officer at Vetology. “This release wouldn’t have been possible without the dedication of our engineers and the invaluable collaboration with our in-house radiologists. Vetology’s classifiers are not just about numbers; they’re about enabling veterinarians to make confident decisions. Each new addition is the result of careful planning, rigorous validation, and feedback from practicing clinicians to ensure relevance and reliability”, he added.
Next Steps
Existing clients do not need to take any additional steps to benefit from these updates. The improved canine abdomen classifiers are live and integrated into the Vetology platform. Simply continue your daily workflow, and the enhanced capabilities will be reflected in your next canine abdomen radiographs.
