Digital Radiography
Digital Radiography (DR) has revolutionized Equine Veterinary Medicine by providing an advanced and efficient imaging technique. In this cutting-edge technology, digital X-ray sensors are used to capture images of the horse's anatomy, allowing for quick and accurate diagnosis. The process involves positioning the sensor near the targeted area, which absorbs the X-rays passing through, and then converts them into an electronic signal. This digital image is instantly transferred to a computer where it can be viewed, manipulated, and enhanced by the veterinarian. DR provides excellent image quality, allowing for precise evaluation of bone structure, soft tissues, and subtle abnormalities. The convenience of immediate image acquisition, the ability to zoom in and out, adjust contrast levels, and share images electronically, makes digital radiography an invaluable tool for equine veterinarians in diagnosing and treating various conditions in horses.
