The use of magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosing equine deep digital flexor tendinopathies--own experience.

Use of magnetic resonance imaging to assess soft tissue damage in the foot following penetrating injury in 3 horses

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses the magnetic properties of tissues to create a high resolution image, taken in any anatomical plane. The use of MRI in equine diagnostics is still in its infancy, but the technique has great potential in the investigation of many equine diseases, especially diseases of the foot. Conventional imaging modalities, including radiography, diagnostic ultrasonogra...

Equine Superficial Digital Flexor Tendon Evaluation Using Low Field Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Ultrasonography

ANALYTICAL STUDY OF EFFECT OF BILAYER INORGANIC AND ORGANIC COATING AROUND THE IRON OXIDE NANOPARTICLES ON MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING CONTRAST

Background & Aims: In recent years, iron oxide nanoparticles have been used in contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging for diagnosing a wide range of diseases. In order to provide biocompatibility and prevent the toxicity of the nanoparticles, using organic or inorganic coating around these nanoparticles is important for their application. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect...

O-19: A Comparison of Pelvic Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Trans-Vaginal and Trans-Rectal Sonography with Laparoscopic Findings in The Diagnosis of Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis

Background The performance of TVS, TRS and MRI for the diagnosis of DIE have been separately reported in earlier studies. However, the three methods have not been concurrently compared in terms of their overall performance and classified results as per different anatomical locations of DIE lesions in a large study population. This study was an attempt to compare pelvic magnetic resonance imagin...

Magnetic resonance imaging of plantar soft tissue structures of the tarsus and proximal metatarsus in foals and adult horses.

OBJECTIVES The object of this study was to describe previously defined soft tissue structures by using spin and gradient sequences in a 0.5 Tesla magnetic resonance system in order to improve the characterisation of tendon and ligaments at the plantar region of the equine tarsus and metatarsus while considering possible age-related variations. METHODS Cadaveric hindlimbs from twenty-two Warmb...
