Review of Ultrasonographic Techniques to Evaluate the Equine Skull and Head Structures
نویسنده
چکیده
Ultrasonographic examination is a readily available, inexpensive diagnostic technique for investigating osseous and soft tissue abnormalities of the equine head, is complementary to radiography, and may elucidate bony abnormalities not initially apparent on skull radiographs. Ultrasound may provide enough information to preclude computed tomography examination or may validate recommendations for advanced imaging procedures.
