Medical image analysis based on deep learning is a rapidly advancing field in veterinary diagnostics. The aim of this retrospective diagnostic accuracy study was to develop and assess a convolutional neural network (CNN, EfficientNet) to evaluate elbow radiographs from dogs screened for elbow dysplasia. An auto-cropping tool based on the deep learning model RetinaNet was developed for radiograph preprocessing to crop the radiographs to the region of interest around the elbow joint.

Canine hip and elbow dysplasias, which are prevalent orthopedic conditions rooted in developmental and hereditary factors are yet to be comprehensively assessed. This study aimed to address this gap by exploring the prognostic significance of five markers linked to canine hip dysplasia using available genome-wide association studies (GWAS) data. The influence of these markers on both hip and elbow dysplasia was examined in dogs exposed to standardized environmental conditions.

The aim of this study was to describe the physeal pathology of the proximal radius in four skeletally immature male Pugs. Physical examination, radiography, and computed tomography (CT) of the thoracic limbs were performed in all four dogs. Two Pugs were available for long-term follow-up and two Pugs were euthanatized after the diagnostic imaging results.

Emerging evidence in women supports the notion that pregnancy may reset disease resistance, thereby providing protection against subsequent adverse health outcomes, but this hypothesis has not been adequately explored in domestic dogs. Cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) rupture is a degenerative orthopedic disease that frequently affects pet dogs, and its risk has been associated with disruption of the reproductive hormone axis. Our research team is conducting a lifetime cohort study of purebred Rottweilers in North America that have lived 30% longer than breed-average.

Introduction: Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a skeletal developmental abnormality commonly affecting the ribs, femur, tibia, skull, pelvis, spine, and shoulder. FD of the proximal radius is extremely rare and very few cases have been reported. In addition, monostotic lesions of FD in the upper extremity go unnoticed as they are usually asymptomatic.
