Agreement and differentiation of intradural spinal cord lesions in dogs using magnetic resonance imaging.

Background: Magnetic resonance imaging is the method of choice for diagnosing spinal cord neoplasia, but the accuracy of designating the relationship of a neoplasm to the meninges and agreement among observers is unknown.

Objectives: To determine agreement among observers and accuracy of diagnosis compared with histology when diagnosing lesion location based on relationship to the meninges.

Animals: Magnetic resonance images from 53 dogs with intradural extramedullary and intramedullary spinal neoplasms and 17 dogs with degenerative myelopathy.

Evaluation of surgical repair of humeral condylar fractures using self-compressing orthofix pins in 23 dogs.

Objective: To report short- and long-term clinical and radiographic outcomes in dogs with humeral condylar fractures repaired using self-compressing Orthofix pins.

Study Design: Retrospective evaluation with solicited long-term clinical and radiographic evaluations.

Animals: Twenty-three dogs with humeral condylar fractures.
