Case Description: An 11-month-old sexually intact male red kangaroo () was examined because of bilateral radial and ulnar fractures.
Clinical Findings: Radiography of the forelimbs revealed bilateral, short oblique fractures in the proximal to mid diaphyses of the radii and ulnae. Fractures were overriding and moderately displaced.
Self-measurement of blood pressure (BP) is regularly used to diagnose hypertension and to monitor BP at home. We recently showed that self-measurement of BP may elicit a pressor or 'auto-cuff' response. In this study we examined whether the pressor response is different between self-initiated and fully-automated BP measurement.

Background: Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) allows for non-invasive assessment of arterial stiffness by means of measuring pulse wave velocity (PWV). PWV can be calculated from the time shift between two time-resolved flow curves acquired at two locations within an arterial segment. These flow curves can be derived from two-dimensional CINE phase contrast CMR (2D CINE PC CMR).
