Opis: Radiography of the Dog and Cat - S. K. Kneller, M. C. Muhlbauer

Radiography of the Dog and Cat: Guide to Making and Interpreting Radiographs offers a comprehensive guide to producing high-quality radiographs and evaluating radiographic findings. Equally useful as a quick reference or for more in-depth information on specific diseases and disorders, the book is logically organized into sections describing how to make high-quality radiographs, normal radiographic anatomy, and interpretation of radiographic abnormalities. It is packed with checklists for systematic evaluation, numerous figures and line drawings, and exhaustive lists of differential diagnoses, resulting in an especially practical guide for the radiographic procedures performed in everyday practice. Written in a streamlined, easy-to-read style, the book offers a simple and fresh approach to radiography of the dog and cat, correlating physics, physiology, and pathology. Coverage includes patient positioning, contrast radiography, normal and abnormal radiographic findings, and differential diagnoses as they pertain to musculoskeletal, thoracic, and abdominal structures. Radiography of the Dog and Cat: Guide to Making and Interpreting Radiographs is a one-stop reference for improving the quality and diagnostic yield of radiographs in your clinical practice.About the Companion Website, ix Acknowledgment, xi Introduction, xiii Chapter 1: Interpretation of Radiographs, 3 Musculoskeleton, 4 Thorax, 12 Abdomen, 27 Chapter 2: Making Quality Radiographs, 43 Production and use of diagnostic x-rays, 44 Positioning guide, 59 Interpreting radiographs, 82 Scope of diagnostic imaging, 85 Chapter 3: Contrast Radiography, 87 Indications for contrast radiography, 88 Types of contrast media, 88 Adverse effects associated with contrast media, 89 Contrast radiography procedures, 91 Chapter 4: Musculoskeleton, 123 Normal radiographic anatomy, 125 General, 125 Bone development, 128 Sesamoid bones, 130 Variable ossifi cation centers, 132 Joints, 133 Skull, 146 Diseases and disorders, 152 Bone production, 152 Bone loss, 156 Benign conditions, 157 Fractures, 161 Hypertrophic osteopathy (HO), 171 Osteomyelitis, 171 Osseous neoplasia, 174 Soft tissues, 177 Appendicular skeleton, 180 Axial skeleton, 232 Differential diagnoses, 264 General bone, 264 Joints, 267 Spine, 268 Skull, 271 Pharynx and larynx abnormalities, 273 Chapter 5: Thorax, 275 Normal radiographic anatomy, 277 Thoracic wall, 277 Diaphragm, 279 Pleura and pleural space, 279 Mediastinum, 280 Esophagus, 282 Heart and major vessels, 284 Trachea, 290 Bronchi, 290 Lungs, 291 Diseases and disorders, 294 Thoracic wall, 294 Diaphragm, 297 Pleura and pleural space, 299 Mediastinum, 304 Esophagus, 306 Heart and major vessels, 312 Trachea and bronchi, 335 Lungs, 341 Differential diagnoses, 356 Thoracic wall, 356 Diaphragm, 357 Pleura and pleural space, 358 Mediastinum, 360 Esophagus, 362 Cardiac silhouette, 364 Major vessels, 368 Trachea, 369 Lungs, 371 Chapter 6: Abdomen, 377 Normal radiographic anatomy, 379 Peritoneal and retroperitoneal spaces, 379 Liver, 380 Gall bladder/biliary system, 381 Spleen, 381 Pancreas, 383 Gastrointestinal tract, 383 Urinary tract, 388 Adrenal glands, 390 Male genital system, 391 Female genital system, 393 Diseases and disorders, 393 Peritoneal hernia, 393 Liver, 394 Gall bladder/biliary system, 396 Spleen, 397 Pancreas, 398 Gastrointestinal tract, 399 Urinary tract, 415 Adrenal glands, 427 Male genital system, 429 Female genital system, 433 Differential diagnoses, 436 Abdominal cavity, 436 Abdominal wall, 440 Gastrointestinal tract, 441 Liver, 447 Spleen, 448 Pancreas, 449 Urinary tract, 450 Male genital system 455 Female genital system 455 Glossary, 457 Bibliography, 473 Index, 475
