Radiographic Assessment in Veterinary Medicine
Radiographic assessment is a systematic diagnostic imaging method using X-rays to create two-dimensional images of internal structures, facilitating detection of skeletal, thoracic, and abdominal pathology. Since the discovery of X-rays in 1896 and their early adoption in veterinary medicine, radiography has remained foundational to veterinary diagnostics. Modern radiographic assessment combines conventional techniques with advanced processing and systematic interpretation protocols to maximize diagnostic accuracy and clinical impact.
