title: Application of the radiological sciences to advance clinical and fundamental knowledge of the animal kingdom. New Horizons for Radiologists Lecture.
abstract: Many radiological techniques are useful in fundamental research. Selected clinical problems in animals as well as certain basic research projects are utilized to emphasize the potential of radiological imaging. The author describes the use of several radiological methods in studies of how birds breathe.
