Red flag behaviors that can cost you the station:
🚩 Skipping patient safety steps
🚩 Not explaining your reasoning
🚩 Rushing without completing key tasks
Want to avoid these? You need real-time feedback—not just more notes.
Inside the CPE Online Bootcamp, we flag these early so you don’t lose points later.

CPE Tip: Structure Over Guesswork

To score well on the CPE, follow the clinical reasoning process the exam is built around:

1️⃣ Signalment + History
2️⃣ Distance Exam + Physical Exam
3️⃣ Problem List
4️⃣ Differential Diagnoses
5️⃣ Targeted Diagnostics

🧠 Skip steps, and you’ll lose points.

🎓 Our virtual course teaches this exact method with real case walk-throughs, checklists, and tools to help you practice with purpose.

Sterile Technique = Safe Surgery + Better CPE Scores 🧼💉

You will be judged on your sterile technique in the Anesthesia and Surgery stations of the CPE. And yes, hand hygiene, PPE use, and breaking sterility are all make-or-break factors. 🚫

💡 Here’s what matters most:
✅ Proper gowning and gloving
✅ Avoiding breaks in the sterile field
✅ Knowing when to re-glove or ask for help
✅ Understanding when PPE is required (and when it's not)

🔄 Practice makes perfect, and clean technique makes passing scores.

Hi friends, if you are currently planning to come train with us in person in 2025, please be advised that Dr. Thompson is considering a sabbatical in Q1 and Q2. So if your CPE is coming up soon, we suggest you book a date in December (if needed, there will be more comprehensive spots added in December). We will keep you updated as we find out more.

Everyone, you should be using this database to improve your radiograph reading skills. You will need it for Equine, SAM1 and SAM2. The case will have a brief history, then you can review the radiographs without annotations. The next click will reveal the findings and diagnosis. It helped me greatly when I was preparing for my CPE. Dr. T

Hello Everybody,

The case of the week is back all the way from Down Under !

A few housekeeping items:
-Many thanks to Cristian from the CPE academy without whom it would have been very much harder to get it going again.

-The goal is to go back to about a case per week but this will very much depend my personal workload and cases availability.

-We have a new server, so all the cases on https://veterinaryradiologymirc.squarespace.com/?p are still available but the thumbnails are no longer showing. Hopefully this will get fixed overtime.

-And last but not least but the case of the week is now in partnership with PVS, the CPE online academy and VEG. Without their various supports the case of the week would not be alive.

The case of the week is a:
6y FS cat. acute onset vomiting for 24 hours. O found pieces of foamy nerf gun toy.
Please let me know if you have any questions, comments or concerns.
All the previous cases are available on: https://veterinaryradiologymirc.squarespace.com/?p

If you have any friends who wants to join the list please feel free to forward them this email or to contact me.


Adrien-Maxence Hespel,
DVM, MS, DACVR
Senior Radiologist at PVS


The case of the week is provided for free and made in partnership with:
-Perth Veterinary Specialists:
