Radiographic bone surveys in the evaluation of primary bone tumors in dogs.
Forty-two dogs with primary bone tumors underwent radiographic bone surveys. The use of radiographic bone surveys led to a higher yield in finding other nonclinically detectable neoplastic sites (7.1%) than did thoracic radiographs (4.7%). Multicentric bone tumors accounted for 9.5% of total cases. Bone infarcts were identified in 3 dogs (7.1%).
