Topic:Diagnosis
Diagnosis in horses involves the systematic identification of diseases and conditions affecting equine health. This process relies on a combination of clinical evaluations, laboratory tests, imaging techniques, and other diagnostic tools to assess the health status of horses. Veterinarians utilize these methods to identify symptoms, determine the underlying causes of health issues, and formulate appropriate treatment plans. Diagnostic procedures in equine medicine can include blood tests, ultrasound, radiography, endoscopy, and more specialized tests such as genetic screening or advanced imaging modalities like MRI and CT scans. This page aggregates peer-reviewed research studies and scholarly articles that explore various diagnostic techniques, their applications, and advancements in the field of equine veterinary medicine.
A kininogen-kinin like reaction revealed by the marginal distance of the equine lung.
Summary
Wetting an area 40 × 40 cm. with water at around 16 °C produces a marked increase in the marginal distance of the horse lung (distance between limits of pulmonary sound and sound of thoracic wall) which persists for an average of 4 1/2 hours. The treated area, but no other area, of skin remains totally refractory for more than 7 hours and partially refractory for more than 28 but less than 46 hours. Phenylbutazone (7 mg./kg. i. v.) prevents the effect. A kininogen-kinin effect is considered the likely explanation. Camphor produced similar changes to those caused by cold water.
