The main aim of this pilot study was to assess the feasibility spinal neuronavigation for plate fixation lumbar vertebrae in miniature breed dogs using a surgical navigation system combination with custom-made reference array.
Abstract Objective To determine cutoff values for the diagnosis of atlantoaxial instability (AAI) based on cross‐sectional imaging in small‐breed dogs. Study design Retrospective multicenter study. Sample population Client‐owned dogs ( n = 123) and 28 cadavers. Methods Dogs were assigned to three groups: a control group, “potentially unstable” an AAI‐affected according findings clinical signs. The ventral compression index (VCI), cranial translation ratio (CTR), C1‐C2 overlap, angle,...
Abstract Objective The study aimed to determine the influence of head neck position on imaging measurements used assess craniovertebral junction (CVJ) and recommend most appropriate for evaluation CVJ. Study Design A cross-sectional sample adult dogs' cadavers was subjected a computed tomography scan cranium cranial cervical region in three standardized positions. Imaging often CVJ were measured. position, breed, weight gender tested using repeated measures analysis variance. Results...
Abstract We present a case of 3‐year‐old, male Border Collie with severe hip dysplasia and osteoarthritis undergoing total replacement, notably having history previous surgery inadequate epidural analgesia. Our objective was to evaluate efficacy before using nociceptive threshold measurement. Nociceptive thresholds were measured transdermal electrical stimulation via the Dolosys Pain Tracker device. The dog received ropivacaine morphine, resulting in cessation withdrawal response...
