A 6‐year‐old castrated Goldendoodle dog was presented for left‐sided lameness of 3 weeks’ duration. Focal, moderate to marked increased ^99mTc‐methylene diphosphonate (^99mTc‐MDP) uptake was detected in the right caudal lung lobe, caudal angle of the left scapula, and the distal aspect of the left femur with whole body bone phase scintigraphy. Radiographs identified a well‐circumscribed, oval‐shaped soft tissue opaque mass in the right caudal lung lobe; a suspect oval‐shaped osteolytic lesion in the proximal third of the left scapula; and an osteolytic lesion in the distal aspect of the left femur. Metastatic pilomatricoma was confirmed histologically at all three sites.  相似文献   

Evaluation of thermographic imaging of the limbs of healthy dogs     

Loughin CA  Marino DJ 《American journal of veterinary research》2007,68(10):1064-1069

OBJECTIVE: To describe a thermographic imaging protocol, identify normal thermographic patterns (ie, color map reflecting the skin temperature distribution) for various regions of interest (ROIs) of dog limbs, and evaluate effects of clipping the coat on thermographic patterns and limb temperature in healthy dogs. ANIMALS: 10 healthy dogs. PROCEDURES: Each dog was thermographically evaluated in the same room (ambient temperature, 21 degrees C) via ROIs that included cranial and caudal views of the body, full lateral body views, full views of the limbs, and views of various limb regions. After initial imaging, the coat was clipped on the forelimbs and hind limbs only. Each dog was then evaluated 15 and 60 minutes and 24 hours after clipping by use of the same protocol. RESULTS: For each ROI within a category (intact coat and each time point after clipping), mean temperatures were similar among the 10 dogs. Pairwise comparisons for 15 and 60 minutes and 24 hours established patterns of temperature stabilization among the 3 time points. Temperatures did not differ significantly between the left and right limbs. There was a mean success rate of 75% for use of image pattern analysis for recognition of similar thermographic patterns in the forelimbs and hind limbs. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Thermography can be a viable, noninvasive imaging modality that provides consistent images with reproducible thermal patterns in ROIs examined in healthy dogs. Although the coat had a predictable influence to decrease the mean temperature, thermal patterns remained fairly consistent after the coat was clipped.  相似文献   

Imaging findings and surgical treatment of hemivertebrae in three dogs     

Jeffery ND  Smith PM  Talbot CE 《Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association》2007,230(4):532-536

CASE DESCRIPTION: 3 immature screw-tailed dogs were evaluated because of progressive pelvic limb paraparesis. CLINICAL FINDINGS: Each dog had marked ataxia and paresis of the pelvic limbs and a palpable deformity of the midthoracic portion of the vertebral column. Pain perception in the pelvic limbs was considered normal, and there was no evidence of fecal or urinary incontinence in any of the 3 dogs. Radiography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed hemivertebrae with severe dorsoventral stenosis of the vertebral canal resulting in spinal cord compression in 2 dogs and lateral compression in the other. TREATMENT AND OUTCOME: Each dog underwent decompressive surgery consisting of dorsal laminectomy or hemilaminectomy and vertebral stabilization by use of combinations of Kirschner wires or threaded external fixator pins plus polymethylmethacrylate bone cement. All dogs regained strong locomotor function with minimal residual pelvic limb ataxia. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Little detailed information regarding surgical treatment of hemivertebrae in dogs is available; results of treatment in these 3 dogs suggest that spinal cord decompression and stabilization of the vertebral column can achieve a satisfactory, functional outcome.  相似文献

Individual contribution of grain outer layers and their cell wall structure to the mechanical properties of wheat bran   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

The mechanical properties of wheat bran and the contribution of each constitutive tissue on overall bran properties were determined on a hard wheat (cv. Baroudeur) and a soft wheat (cv. Scipion). Manual dissection allowed three different layers to be separated from wheat bran, according to radial and longitudinal grain orientations, which were identified by confocal laser scanning microscopy as outer pericarp, an intermediate strip (comprising inner pericarp, testa, and nucellar tissue), and aleurone layer, respectively. Tissue microstructure and cell wall composition were determined. Submitted to traction tests, whole bran, intermediate, and aleurone layers demonstrated elastoplastic behavior, whereas pericarp exhibited elastic behavior. By longitudinal orientation, pericarp governed 50% bran elasticity (elastic strength and rigidity), whereas, in the opposite orientation, bran elastic properties were mostly influenced by the other tissues. Regardless of test orientation, the linear force required to bran rupture corresponded to the sum of intermediate and aleurone layer strengths. According to radial orientation, the intermediate strip governed bran extensibility, but according to longitudinal orientation, all tissues contributed until bran disruption. Tissues from both wheat cultivars behaved similarly. A structural model of wheat bran layers illustrated the detachment of pericarp from intermediate layer within radial bran strips.  相似文献   

Subsurface leachate migration from a reject coal pile in South Carolina     

Catherine A. Carlsonn 《Water, air, and soil pollution》1990,53(3-4):345-366

Transport of contaminants from coal storage areas through the rooting zone has the potential to negatively affect shallow ground water and terrestrial vegetation. Reject coal piles represent a worst-case scenario for contamination from coal storage areas because of the long residence time of the coal. Preliminary hydrologic data were collected from an area of stressed vegetation adjacent to an inactive ash basin and reject coal pile in South Carolina. The water table is near the surface (< 60 cm) in this wetland area and water movement is primarily to the west, toward the Savannah River. Acid leachate migration from the reject coal pile has contaminated the water-table aquifer with sulfate (up to 22 200 mg L^?1) and metals (Fe to 9560 mg L^?1) Al to 1110 mg L^?1) A shallow plume of contaminated ground water parallels the reject coal pile and is elongated in the direction of ground-water movement. The plume is migrating westward at a calculated velocity range of 6.3 to 10.4 m yr^?1. Leachate migration from the reject coal has produced a highly acidic (pH down to 2.2) and highly saline (EC to 11.8 dS m^?1) rooting zone and is most likely responsible for the stressed vegetation in the study area.  相似文献   

Direct method for determining seed and skin proanthocyanidin extraction into red wine     

Peyrot des Gachons C  Kennedy JA 《Journal of agricultural and food chemistry》2003,51(20):5877-5881

A method was developed for determining the amount of seed and skin proanthocyanidin extraction into wines by direct measurement. This method was based upon the analysis of proanthocyanidin cleavage products after acid catalysis in the presence of excess phloroglucinol. On the basis of the analysis of proanthocyanidin extracts from grape tissues, two observations were made as follows: (i) the seed and skin proanthocyanidin extension subunit compositions were considerably different from each other, and (ii) their composition did not vary with extraction time. Thus, by comparing the proportional extension subunit composition of proanthocyanidins in wine relative to their proportional composition in corresponding grape seed and skin, it was possible to determine the contribution of each to wine. To provide additional information, the procedure was used to investigate seed and skin proanthocyanidin extraction during commercial-scale fermentations that had undergone 4 or 10 day low temperature prefermentation skin contact prior to the onset of fermentation. The results for both fermentations indicated that the proportion of skin tannin declined during fermentation and also showed that at the end of fermentation the amount and proportion of skin tannin were the same.  相似文献
