Awards for AHT veterinary scientists
Two veterinary scientists from the Animal Health Trust (AHT) have been honoured for their contributions to veterinary radiology and diagnostic imaging.
Sue Dyson, head of clinical orthopaedics at the AHT, and Ruth Dennis, head of diagnostic imaging, were recognised by the International Veterinary Radiology Association (IVRA).
Dr Dyson was awarded the IVRA J Kevin Kealy Award, which is given to association members who make substantial scientific contributions to veterinary radiology, and was described as "an outstanding recipient."
Mrs Dennis received the European Association of Veterinary Diagnostic Imaging (EAVDI) Douglas and Williamson Award, which honours the outstanding achievement within the field of veterinary diagnostic imaging.
She said: "I am very honoured to receive this award, especially since, as a vet student in Cambridge in the late 1970s, I was taught by Sidney Douglas and David Williamson, who were pioneers of veterinary radiology."
The RCVS has announced a new version of its 1CPD mobile app, with enhanced features for veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses to record their continuing professional development.
