Canine Spinal Empyema and Meningitis Case Study 📝

A 4-year-old, female spayed mixed breed dog presented with a 1-month history of progressive neck pain, ataxia, and tetraparesis. Additionally, the dog had become hyporexic over the last week and hypodipsic in the previous few days. The neurological exam was compatible with a C1-T2 myelopathy. The dog underwent a cervical vertebral column MRI using the Hallmarq 2nd generation small animal 1.5T MRI machine.

Foot penetrating injury Case Study 📝

Check out this case provided kindly by our friends over at Hästklinik HKF using both Standing Equine MRI and Vision CT to help diagnose an injury.

MRI is a well-established diagnostic tool for foot penetrating injuries . However, in this instance, the presence of metal fragments limited its diagnostic efficacy and CT imaging proved instrumental in visualizing the tract and assessing the integrity of crucial internal foot structures.

We're bridging the diagnostic gap in equine lameness 🤝

Lameness in the foot and fetlock presents a complex challenge. Traditional imaging techniques, while necessary, often provide incomplete pictures, leaving veterinarians seeking more detailed insights for their diagnoses. Thankfully, Vision CT can provide unprecedented precision and clarity by harnessing the power of Cone Beam CT – technology optimised for the distal limb.
