considered the diagnostic method of choice for assessing equine tendon injuries
what is ultrasonography
what is in the box? (Diagram of leg muscles in horses)
what is peroneus tertius m
in this species, the superficial gluteal muscle fuses with the biceps femoris muscle to form the gluteobiceps muscle
what is small ruminants
this condition is seen in horses when there is an injury to the supra-scapular nerve
what is Sweeny
these are the four paired bones of the cranium
what are exoccipital, parietal, frontal, and temporal
this ligament inhibits flexion of the elbow joint in the stay apparatus
what is the lateral collateral ligament
this type of ultrasonic frequency can penetrate deeper, but shows less detail
what is low frequency
what is in the red circle? (50 bonus points if you can give me both names!)
what is olecranon tuberosity or point of the elbow
in the horse, this muscle blends with the longissimus lumborum muscle and is important for rearing
what is the Middle Gluteal Muscle
abnormal accumulation of fat within muscle tissues
steatosis
this is the main muscle in carnivores that closes the jaws by elevating the mandible
what is temporalis muscle
this structure of the equine foot offers stability to the heels
what are the bars
the mid-diaphyseal region of the humerus appeared radiolucent on a radiograph of a dog. is this normal? see picture below.
Yes this is normal
what is the "star" pointing to on this diagram?
what is the medial collateral ligament (of the metacarpo-phalangeal joint)
what is cats
an acquired bursa between the skin and the superficial digital flexor tendon due to trauma
what is capped hock
this is how many spinal cord segments a bovine patient has
what is 37 segments
this type of nerve fiber has the most sensitivity to anesthetics
what is unmyelinated
explain why the bones look funny on this array of radiographs.
what is chondrodystrophic breeds?
what is the red arrow pointing to?
what is the hyoid apparatus
this muscle is fleshy in the dog but completely tendinous in the adult horse
what is the interosseous muscle
this tendon may be resected in cases of osteoarthritis of the tarsus in horses
cunean tendon
this artery is the main blood supply to the pes
what is the dorsal metatarsal artery
this bone disorder is a genetic mutation of the osteoclasts, preventing them to resorb bone. In turn, there is an insufficient bone marrow cavity
what is osteopetrosis
what is the arrow pointing to in an elbow (crania-caudal) radiograph from a feline patient.
what is the supracondylar foramen
what part of the pelvis is this?
what is the ischium
upon radiograph, the olecranon process in this species appears to be more square
what is cats
grade the lameness of this dog: weight bearing lameness, typically with a distinct head bob
what is grade 3
this neurologic condition causes rigid forelimb extension and hindlimb paralysis
Schiff Sherrington Syndrome
a 6mo old foal presents with lameness. A necropsy is performed and shows a focal area of retained cartilage in the epiphyseal growth plate due to failure of endochondral ossification
what is osteochondrosis manifesta
what is wrong with this radiograph?
what is a femoral neck fracture
what is the arrow pointing to in these species?
what is the nuchal ligament
in this species the 4th metatarsal bone does not fully articulate with tarsal bone 4
what is horses
Infection of the cranial nuchal bursa leads to this condition in horses (50 bonus points if you get both names :))
what is "poll evil"/ septic nuchal bursitis
this posture has balanced stability, fast/agile speed, and the toes/paw pads come into contact with the ground
what is digitigrade
this skeletal neoplasm of dogs is highly malignant and is predominantly in the metaphyses of larger appendicular bones
what is osteosarcoma
