Sintesi	Ultrasonography is a diagnostic imaging method using high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of internal structures. Adapted from human medical ultrasound beginning in the 1960s-1970s, veterinary ultrasonography is now essential for soft tissue imaging, particularly for abdominal, cardiac, and thoracic assessment. Modern portable ultrasound units enable point-of-care evaluation, and Doppler techniques allow assessment of blood flow and cardiac function.	Blood gas analysis is a systematic laboratory method for measuring partial pressures of oxygen and carbon dioxide, pH, bicarbonate, and electrolytes in arterial or venous blood. Formalized in veterinary medicine since the 1960s-1970s, it provides critical real-time assessment of respiratory function, metabolic status, and acid-base balance, enabling rapid diagnosis and monitoring of severely ill animals and guiding intensive care management.
