This week we are so excited to be speaking with Ashley and Kat. Dr. Ashley Bourgeois is a board-certified veterinary dermatologist passionate about providing practical knowledge to general practitioners to help itchy pets! She became a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Dermatology in 2014. She has a strong interest in autoimmune skin diseases, allergies, cytology, and otology. She and her husband stay busy with their daughter, son, and rescue Lab/Boxer/Pit mix. Dr. Bourgeois is passionate about educating veterinarians in dermatology and work/life integration through her podcast, lecturing, and social media presence (www.thedermvet.com / https://www.facebook.com/thedermvet / https://www.instagram.com/thedermvet)

We chat to Kat about the evolution of imaging - from film, to CR and then to DR. What does that all mean you ask… listen to find out! We talk about how can you best optimize radiography in your practice. After graduating from Portsmouth University with a Radiography degree in 1995, Kat originally worked in the NHS before moving into cross sectional imaging, travelling to various hospitals performing CT and MRI scans for humans. She then became the lead radiographer working for Vet MRI, the original mobile veterinary MRI service. Kat then worked at Fitzpatrick referrals for 2 years setting up the CT and MRI service there, before moving to BCF Technology (now IMV imaging) in 2010. We would like to say a massive thank you to IMV imaging for supporting our chat today.
