Using the endoscope to visualise a dogs trachea
|
Endoscopy equipment is primarily used to evaluate the upper respiratory tract but urethra and bladder can also be examined.
In addition to the three portable fibre optic endoscopes, a videoendoscope and monitor are available at the hospital to produce a permanent record in both video and still prints.
In small animals endoscopy can be used to visualise the upper respiratory tract (nose, throat, trachea and upper airways), oesophagus, stomach, duodenum and colon. |
