In humans, high-resolution computed tomography (CT) is a key diagnostic modality for
pulmonary disorders. Its success likely lies in excellent correlation of lung diseases with …

Computed tomography (CT) and thoracic radiography were performed in nonsedated,
nonanesthetized, cats with thoracic disease. The final diagnosis was obtained with …

Computed tomography (CT) scanning of the thorax is gaining more attention in veterinary
medicine as therapeutic possibilities increase. Plain and contrast‐enhanced CT images of …

This randomized controlled trial study aimed to identify the optimal positive pressure (PP)

General anesthesia optimizes image quality of thoracic CT in dogs by providing patient
immobilization and respiratory control. However, it also comes with disadvantages that may …

Objective—To provide a detailed anatomic description of the thorax in clinically normal dogs
by means of computed tomography. Animals—4 clinically normal adult German Shepherd …

Upper airway obstruction is a potentially life‐threatening problem in cats and for which a
noninvasive, sensitive method rapid diagnosis is needed. The purposes of this prospective …
