September 18, 2026
Fourth-year veterinary medicine student Macy Moore was the overall winner at the recent American Association of Bovine Practitioners Student Case Competition.
Moore presented on “Antemortem vs. Postmortem: Creating a Real-time Electronic Dashboard to Evaluate Diagnostic Accuracy in Three Large Commercial Feed Yards.”
The study’s objective was to create an electronic dashboard to evaluate the agreement between antemortem diagnosis and postmortem diagnostic lesions in three large commercial feed yards. Mortality and treatment data was obtained on 2,223 calves over an 18 month period.
Feed yard antemortem diagnoses rely heavily on clinical signs, with little use of diagnostic testing or lab confirmation.
