MeSH headings : Animals; Cat Diseases / cerebrospinal fluid; Cat Diseases / pathology; Cats; Diagnosis, Differential; Dog Diseases / cerebrospinal fluid; Dog Diseases / pathology; Dogs; Encephalitis / complications; Encephalitis / pathology; Encephalitis / veterinary; Female; Lameness, Animal / etiology; Lumbar Vertebrae / pathology; Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin / complications; Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin / pathology; Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin / veterinary; Magnetic Resonance Imaging / methods; Magnetic Resonance Imaging / veterinary; Male; Spinal Cord Neoplasms / complications; Spinal Cord Neoplasms / pathology; Spinal Cord Neoplasms / veterinary; Subarachnoid Space / pathology
TL;DR: Although the resolution of the single-shot turbo spin-echo pulse sequence images is relatively poor compared with more conventional sequences, the qualitative information about the subarachnoid space and cerebrospinal fluid and the rapid acquisition time, make it a useful sequence to include in standard protocols of spinal magnetic resonance imaging.

2005 journal article

The effects of patient positioning and slice selection on canine acetabular angle assessment with computed tomography

Veterinary Radiology Ultrasound, 46(1), 39–43.

By: S. Wang n, K. Mathews* , I. Robertson n, M. Stebbins & B. Trumpatori*

author keywords: acetabular; angle; canine; computed tomography; pelvic tilt; slice
MeSH headings : Acetabulum / anatomy & histology; Acetabulum / diagnostic imaging; Animals; Dogs / anatomy & histology; Pelvis / anatomy & histology; Pelvis / diagnostic imaging; Posture; Reference Values; Tomography, X-Ray Computed / veterinary
TL;DR: Significant variation in AAs with small differences in pelvic tilt and slice selection is found, and the floor of the sacral vertebral canal may be a reasonable landmark for this purpose and deserves further study. (via Semantic Scholar)

TL;DR: HU could be used to differentiate three types of uroliths of pure mineral composition in vitro and further studies are needed to determine the predictive value of HU in vivo. (via Semantic Scholar)

Radiographic anatomy of the canine coxofemoral joint using the dorsal acetabular rim (DAR) view

Veterinary Radiology Ultrasound, 44(5), 526–532.

By: B. Trumpatori n, K. Mathews n , S. Roe n  & I. Robertson*

author keywords: dorsal acetabular rim; hip dysplasia; canine; radiography
MeSH headings : Acetabulum / anatomy & histology; Acetabulum / diagnostic imaging; Animals; Dogs / anatomy & histology; Hip Dysplasia, Canine / diagnostic imaging; Joint Instability / diagnostic imaging; Joint Instability / veterinary; Radiography / veterinary
TL;DR: It is suggested that the DAR radiographic view may under-represent changes to the dorsal acetabular rim in dogs with coxofemoral laxity. (via Semantic Scholar)

Ultrasonographic features of canine abdominal malignant histiocytosis

VETERINARY RADIOLOGY & ULTRASOUND, 43(2), 167–170.
