Imaging is Complementary: Using Multiple Imaging Modalities in Veterinary Medicine
نویسنده
چکیده
Veterinary diagnostic imaging has grown tremendously in the past 10 years. Digital radiology and cross sectional imaging modalities like ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have profoundly improved our ability to diagnose many small animal diseases. Digital radiography improves image quality while at the same time making radiographs easy to make and share with others. Ultrasound units are becoming more common in small animal veterinary practice. Ultrasound exams come in many forms, from the focused emergency exam to comprehensive vascular imaging. CT and MRI are gaining ground, mostly in specialty practices.
