Diagnostic Imaging of the Respiratory Tract of the Reptile Patient

 

 

What is the value of imaging in reptiles with dyspnoea? How can I achieve the best possible diagnosis? And what specialities are there to consider while imaging a reptile?

The focus of this publication is on imaging in chelonians, but you also find valuable instructions for the optimal preparation of radiographs on other reptile species up to respiratory symptoms in reptiles understandable and illustrated by means of numerous images.

Dr. Michaela Gumpenberger also illustrates the relevance of diagnostic imaging for the complete examination of the dyspneic reptile patient and explains the further advantages of diagnostic imaging by means of CT in particular.

Conclusion:

This publication represents a valuable contribution to modern exotic medicine and is, in our view, an absolute must for every reptile specialist and all those who wish to become one - Awarded with the VÖK (Association of Austrian Small Animal Veterinarians) Prize 2021!
