This protects the animals and improves the diagnostics enormously.
This enables us, among other things, to produce 3D images of our patients and at the same time print them out on a 3D printer. This opens up completely new ways, for example in the preparation for surgery:
Other areas of application for the new computer tomograph at the small animal centre in Durlach are
- dental radiography, e.g. FORL in cats
- but also dogs, rabbits and guinea pigs can be examined very well in detail by means of computer tomography
- diagnosis of tumours and metastases
- setting up of fractures
- preoperative planning of fracture treatment
- imaging of vessels, bile ducts and
gastrointestinal sections with corresponding
contrast media
- placement of probes
- observation of dynamic processes
- heart movement
- swallowing movement (oesophagus imaging)
- integrating implant control during
of the surgical procedure (function similar to a C-arm)
- biopsies
- positioning control before the CT examination
