CONTENT DESCRIPTION


  • 60 min   Advances in Equine Diagnostic Imaging – Standing CT   Dr. Kate Bills
  • 60 min   Advances in Equine Diagnostic Imaging – PET   Dr. Mathieu Spriet

Dr. Mathieu Spriet is a Professor of Diagnostic Imaging at the School of Veterinary Medicine at the University of California, Davis. He obtained his DVM degree from the National Veterinary School of Lyon (France) in 2002 and a Master Degree from the University of Montreal (Canada) in 2004. He has been a diplomate of both the American College of Veterinary Radiology and the European College of Veterinary Diagnostic Imaging since 2007, after completing his radiology residency at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr Spriet joined UC Davis as a faculty member in 2007. He became a diplomate of the newly created ACVR- Equine Diagnostic Imaging specialty in 2019. Dr Spriet has over 75 peer-reviewed publications (full list of publications: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/myncbi/mathieu.spriet.1/bibliography/public/). He is a frequent speaker at national and international conferences. His main area of interest is equine musculoskeletal imaging. He has pioneered the use of positron emission tomography in horses, leading to the development of a scanner specifically designed to image standing horses. He is a consultant for advanced imaging in racehorses at several racetracks in the USA, including Santa Anita and Churchill Downs. He serves as an expert on the Racing Victoria imaging panel. 

More Info

Kate earned her VMD from the University of Pennsylvania in 2012, after obtaining a degree in biochemistry from Tufts University. She then completed a rotating internship in equine medicine, surgery, and critical care at the New Bolton Center in Pennsylvania. Following her internship, Kate pursued a diagnostic imaging residency at Tufts University's Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine.

In 2016, Kate became board certified in diagnostic imaging by the American College of Veterinary Radiology (ACVR). That same year, she joined the faculty at the New Bolton Center, University of Pennsylvania, as an Assistant Professor of Diagnostic Imaging. Kate's clinical work focuses on the use of advanced imaging technologies such as CT, MRI, and a robotics-controlled cone-beam CT system designed for use with standing horses.

Kate is also involved in clinical research on the veterinary applications of rapid prototyping, including 3D printing. In her free time, she enjoys riding her Warmblood jumper, Catapult, and spending time with her husband, Zach, and their Labradors.
