In addition, using vPOP to train veterinarians in Orthopaedic surgery is fantastic as well as the ability to show owners in the examination room what we will be doing in surgery. For an owner to see how we will be manipulating a bone or fracture and what it will look like radiographically afterwards goes a long way for client education and understanding."

It can also help you with the most complex cases. I really like the way new tools are constantly created to answer new surgical challenges and to plan the most recently described orthopaedic surgical procedures. It is amazing to be able to visualise the virtual final results and simulate the use of different implants from all the companies. I have been using vPOP PRO almost every week to plan my CBLO surgeries and would not plan a CBLO with any other planning tool."

"I was a somewhat late adopter - holding fast to my older, now unsupported planning software but making the switch to vPOP was a no-brainer once I realized how very user friendly it is. I love having access to my cases across all platforms (mobile, tablet, web and desktop). Planning cases is intuitive (and made easier with your wonderful videos) and sharing them with colleagues is effortless.

I love how you solicit and incorporate user feedback and are timely with updates, including newer implants. vPOP has made planning complex cases easier and, honestly more enjoyable. Thanks so much for the wonderful addition to our ortho toolkit."

"vPOP PRO is a very powerful tool for pre-operative planning in veterinary orthopedics. vPOP allows accurate surgical planning, negating the need for mathematical or geometric calculations, for surgeries such as THR for coxofemoral diseases, TPLO and other osteotomies for cranial cruciate injuries, and corrective osteotomies for bone deformities, and its even wider use can be easily foreseen. 

The calibration function of vPOP enables correction of magnification and accurate measurement. With digital templating using implants from numerous manufacturers, surgeons are no longer required to use rulers and protractors on radiographs or tracing papers, to plan out and simulate the procedure.  

This user-friendly software’s capability to improve efficiency, which saves time and labor, is eye-opening. A detailed manual as well as tutorial videos can be accessed through the vPOP website.  

It can be accessed from any location and I have used vPOP when teaching surgical planning at TPLO, fracture and THR labs and workshops, not only in Japan, but also abroad, such as Korea, Taiwan, China, Malaysia, and Turkey. 

vPOP is used worldwide in orthopedic surgery workshops, and has contributed tremendously to veterinary education. And for that, I would like to sincerely pay my respects to the founder and friend of mine, Dr. Rory Paton."

What sets vPOP apart is not only its fair pricing but also the company's unwavering commitment to continuous improvement. They actively listen to feedback from colleagues, ensuring that the platform evolves to meet the ever-changing needs of veterinary orthopedics.

I have used vPOP extensively and continue to do so around the world for continuing education. The quality of the tool is exceptional, and its regular updates and enhancements make it an indispensable resource for any veterinary orthopedic specialist.

For anyone in the veterinary field looking to elevate their practice, I cannot recommend vPOP enough. It is a game-changer."

Beyond the clinical aspects, vPOP has become a valuable training tool for our residents. Dr. Paton has been incredibly supportive of our efforts to train residents in how to improve the quality of their work through preoperative planning. To that end, he has been diligent in making vPOP affordable to our program so we can continue to provide the best of training for our residents."

"I distinctly recall the day Rory approached me to introduce VPOP. At the time, I was the International Chair of Education at AOVET, I was deeply involved in developing new course content and formats, particularly for deformities correction and TPLO. We needed a planning tool that was user-friendly, versatile, educational, and had diverse implant choices. Rory's app, VPOP, perfectly aligned with our vision, offering the solutions we sought. 

Despite my hectic schedule, I couldn't ignore Rory's enthusiastic appeal. When he unveiled VPOP, I was amazed. His creation quickly became the most utilized and esteemed planning tool in the global veterinary orthopaedic community. 

Today, VPOP is integral to many AOVET courses and widely used by CPD providers, academic institutions, and orthopaedic implant companies. I fervently recommend it to colleagues and course participants. The learning curve is swift, thanks to exceptional tutorials and examples. The technical support is exemplary, with Rory tirelessly answering queries. 

As an educator, I appreciate VPOP's educational utility. It allows for remote consultation, real-time case sharing, and insightful discussions, enhancing pre and post-op assessments. The app consistently draws excellent feedback from course participants. 

As the owner of an orthopaedic implant company, seeing our products featured in VPOP is exciting. The remarkable artwork and reliable technical support add to the sense of validation. VPOP stands as the innovation we had long sought, deserving recognition for its imaginative and bold approach. Rory's emphasis on imagination in VPOP's evolving features evokes profound respect for his visionary thinking. VPOP has truly changed our profession, making surgery more predictable and improving outcomes."

"The addition of vPOP to my orthopaedic practice has brought digital orthopaedic planning to the next level. Multiplatform access allows one to plan on any device in any location for later viewing in the operating room. A typical workflow is to plan the case on an office workstation and view on the operating room workstation. In other situations, a laptop can be used in the operating room or exported, planned images can be viewed. When out of the office, planned cases can be viewed on a smartphone, tablet or laptop. Another great feature is case sharing which allows colleagues to share plans for review by other surgeons. We have used this powerful feature for several training courses to share cases and exercises with the participants. The ability to import various image files greatly increases the versatility of this planning tool. Access to numerous implants from the leading manufactures virtually guarantees that the implant you intend to use is available as a digital template. I’m greatly looking forward to the release of vPOP 3.0."

VPOP Pro is my go-to app for all orthopaedic assessments and planning, particularly for TPLO, THR, MPL, fracture repair, and limb deformity correction. It has positively contributed to the veterinary orthopaedic community by providing all vets with a low-cost solution to optimize their ability to plan and perform advanced orthopaedic surgeries. This app is an invaluable resource, and I highly recommend it to any veterinary professional looking to enhance their practice."
