Download or read book Equine Diagnostic Ultrasound written by Virginia B. Reef and published by Saunders. This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text provides an overview of the applications of diagnostic ultrasonography in the horse. It discusses the normal anatomical relationships from an ultrasonographic perspective, the techniques utilized to obtain ultrasonographic images, and the lesions or injuries which can be imaged through ultrasound. The use of ultrasonographic information to develop a prognosis and follow the progress of the case is also addressed. Covers the more traditional applications: of diagnostic ultrasound in theriogenology and flexor tendon and ligament disorders, in the evaluation of thoracic and abdominal diseases, and of Power Doppler to evaluate low velocity blood flow. Features the newer applications for musculoskeletal imaging (fractures, osteomyelitis, collateral ligament desmitis, more), theriogenology (ultrasonography of the late term fetus and intrauterine environment), and spectral and color flow Doppler and their usefulness inthe horse. Explains--step-by-step--how to: perform scans of all body systems, obtain high quality images, and interpret those images. Discusses how to diagnose subtle lesions: evaluate soft tissue structures of joints, localize fracture fragments, osteomyelitis, and penetrating injuries to synovial structures, follow draining tracks, and locate foreign bodies. Demonstrates how to use echocardiographic findings to determine the significance of heart murmurs, and evaluate myocardial function in horses with poor performance. Shows how to diagnose a wide variety of abdominal disorders in foals and adult horses. Presents images of lesions and injuries that can be captured through ultrasound, and the techniques that were used to obtain them. Includes anatomic drawings to supplement the ultrasonic images.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ATLAS OF EQUINE ULTRASONOGRAPHY A THOROUGH EXPANSION TO THE FIRST ATLAS OF ULTRASONOGRAPHY IN THE HORSE, WITH NEW AND SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVED IMAGES Ultrasonography is a vital diagnostic tool that can be applied in numerous functions in a veterinary practice. In conjunction with relevant clinical information—patient history and physical examination findings, for example—it can act as an important aid in the veterinarian’s decision-making process. Many vets in equine practice rely upon ultrasonography as a mainstay of equine diagnostic imaging on a wide range of structures and body systems. Ultrasonography is a useful procedure that is non-invasive and acts in complement to radiography to successfully diagnose the animal’s condition. This book’s aim is to encourage the clinician to rely further on the use of ultrasonography in their practice. The second edition of Atlas of Equine Ultrasonography provides an updated and expanded revision of the first atlas of ultrasonography in the horse. The first edition of this important resource was the first pictorially-based book to cover ultrasonography in the horse, and remains the only book currently available on the subject. The current version offers 450 additional images with greater clarity and precision in the images throughout and demonstrates how to obtain images in each body region while offering clinical ultrasonograms that show pathology. Atlas of Equine Ultrasonography readers will also find: High-quality clinical ultrasonograms for important musculoskeletal, reproductive, and medical conditions in the horse More than 1,500 images, with accompanying concise text describing the images A companion website that provides video clips showing dynamic ultrasound exams Atlas of Equine Ultrasonography is an invaluable reference to any veterinarian evaluating ultrasonograms in equine patients. As a result, this book will be of particular interest to equine specialists, veterinary radiologists, equine practitioners, and veterinary students.

Download or read book Diagnostic Ultrasound and Animal Reproduction written by M.A.M. Taverne and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of ultrasonic imaging techniques for diagnostic purposes in veteri nary medicine and animal science has lagged far behind their use in human medicine. In the area of domestic animal reproduction, diagnostic ultrasono graphy has a relatively short history. Reports on B-mode scanning first appeared as late as 1969, when Stouffer and co-workers used it for counting foetal numbers in late gestation sheep. After Lindahl had re-evaluated the potential of two-dimensional ultrasonography for pregnancy diagnosis in sheep in 1976, results of the first large scale field-trials by Fowler and Wilkins on predicting foetal numbers during the first half of gestation in sheep were published as recently as 1980. In this year also the first paper, by Palmer and co-workers, on ultrasonic scanning of the uterus and ovaries in the mare appeared. The improvement of diagnostics which was achieved by the application of this technique is illustrated by its present routine use in clinical equine practice and sheep breeding. Besides offe ring an accurate early pregnancy diagnosis in species such as the horse, cow, sheep, goat, pig and dog, ultrasonography enables the visualization of ovarian and uterine structures for the identification of both physiological and pathological conditions. In this way it replaces or supplements the more common diagnostic techniques used by the general practitioner so far. Ultrasonography has also opened several new lines of research for clini cians and research workers.
