Skin Disease I — The Itchies (Allergy/Atopy) This session reviews the diagnostic approach and management strategies for pruritic skin disease, focusing on food allergy, environmental allergy, atopic dermatitis, and mixed presentations. Nutrition plays a particularly important role in the itchy patient—this webinar connects the dots. Learning outcomes: Participants will learn to: - Differentiate between common […]
Case management made easy – It can be simple if you know how! This introductory session will give you a thorough overview on the problem oriented work-up of feline medicine cases. Based on several case examples we will learn how to approach problems relevant to felines in a structured manner that will help to ease […]
Psychodermatology – When Skin Speaks the Mind The intersection of dermatology and behavioural medicine is increasingly evident in clinical practice. Chronic pruritus, but also overgrooming, and self-mutilation often have behavioural or emotional underpinnings, necessitating an integrated diagnostic approach. Aims: • To understand the behavioural contributors to dermatological presentations. • To apply psychodermatological principles in diagnosis […]
Autoimmune and immunemediated diseases – part I. – Dr. Chiara Noli There are many autoimmune and immunomediated skin diseases in dogs and cats, with different pathogenesis and cinical presentations. Some of them are easily diagnosed on clinical grounds but some others histopathology for the diagnosis. Depending on the disease, therapeutical protocols may vary and the […]
Skin Disease II — The Non-Itchies (Colour Changes & Other Mysteries) Not all dermatology cases itch. This webinar explores diagnostic challenges such as pigment changes, scaling, haircoat abnormalities, and metabolic or nutritional causes of non-pruritic skin disease. Learning outcomes: Participants will be able to: - Build a structured differential list for non-pruritic dermatological presentations. - […]
Neuro-Toxicities When faced with patients presenting with acute neurological signs, the emergency clinician must rapidly consider toxicities as a possible underlying cause. In this case-based webinar we will revisit the most common toxic agents leading to neurological signs in small animals, including tremor- and seizure-inducing toxins as well as those causing altered mentation or weakness. […]
Decoding Pain – Behavioural Indicators Beyond the Obvious Pain in animals often manifests behaviourally rather than physically, especially in chronic or low-grade conditions. Subtle shifts in posture, reactivity, or interaction patterns may be the only indicators of discomfort, requiring a refined diagnostic lens. Aims: • To deepen understanding of pain-related behavioural expressions. • To improve […]
Heat Stroke In this case-based webinar we will revisit the pathophysiology of heatstroke and the key steps in the emergency approach, from rapid cooling strategies to stabilization of circulation and prevention of secondary complications. We will discuss how to recognize early versus advanced clinical presentations, how to tailor fluid therapy in the face of possible […]
The Hyper Cat (Hyperthyroidism & Hypercalcemia) Cats presenting with “hyper” problems can be diagnostically complex. This webinar walks through hyperthyroidism, primary and secondary hypercalcemia, concurrent disease, and the role of nutrition in stabilizing or managing these patients. Learning outcomes: Participants will learn to: - Understand current diagnostic and treatment pathways for hyperthyroid and hypercalcemic cats. […]
