title: [X-ray diagnosis of abdominal diseases in foals and ponies. I. Technics and normal findings].
abstract: Clinical examination of foals and small ponies with abdominal disorders is limited by the inability to perform rectal palpation. In these patients, radiographic evaluation of the abdomen may contribute to the clinical diagnosis and may help to localize the site of abdominal diseases. The technique for lateral standing survey and contrast radiography of the abdomen in foals and the normal radiographic anatomy are described.
