Abstract
ABSTRACT The present study aimed to evaluate and compare the palmar and plantar digital arteries of 10 horses and 10 mules through B-mode and spectral Doppler ultrasound. Likewise, compare the plantar arteries of the pelvic limbs with the palmar arteries of the thoracic limbs, in addition to verifying the differences of the digital arteries in the contralateral limbs (right and left) in horses and mules using B-mode and spectral Doppler ultrasonography. The evaluated parameters were the diameter and the intima-media thickness (IMT), resistivity index (RI), pulsatility index (PI), peak of systolic velocity (pSV), final diastolic velocity (fDV) and mean velocity (MV) of the lateral and medial palmar and plantar arteries digital in healthy horses and mules. The horses presented higher diameters values, IMT, pSV, fDV and MV in comparison to the mules. The variables RI and PI also presented differences between horses and mules. Also, both species showed higher values in the variables of B-mode and Doppler ultrasonography in the thoracic limbs. Differences were also detected in the comparison between the limb sides (right and left) in the two modalities. The B-Mode and spectral Doppler ultrasound techniques are viable tools to identify differences in the palmar and plantar digital arteries in healthy horses and mules, highlight the differences between the thoracic and pelvic limbs and their respective sides (right and left) as well.
期刊介绍:
Publica artigos originais de pesquisa sobre temas de medicina veterinária, zootecnia, tecnologia e inspeção de produtos de origem animal e áreas afins relacionadas com a produção animal. Atualmente a revista mantém 628 permutas (419 internacionais e 209 nacionais), sendo um verdadeiro suporte para o recebimento de periódicos pela Biblioteca da Escola.
A partir de 1999, a Escola de Veterinária delegou à FEP MVZ Editora o encargo do gerenciamento e edição de todas suas publicações, inclusive do Arquivo, ficando somente com o apoio logístico (instalações, equipamentos, pessoal etc.). O apoio financeiro é exercido pelo CNPq/FINEP e pela própria FEP MVZ.
