  • Title: Compression radiography: an old technique revisited.
    Author: Armbrust LJ, Biller DS, Hoskinson JJ.
    Journal: J Am Anim Hosp Assoc; 2000; 36(6):537-41. PubMed ID: 11105892.
    Abstract:
    Five case examples are provided to illustrate the use of compression radiography in the dog and cat. Abdominal compression radiography provides for evaluation of the size, shape, location, and opacity of a specific area without the degree of superimposition encountered with survey radiographs. The following cases illustrate compression techniques of the intestinal tract, uterus, kidney, bladder, and spleen. A review of the technique as well as a discussion of the advantages and limitations are presented.
