Article Synopsis
  • - Articular cartilage in horses can be effectively imaged using ultrasonography, especially in cases of osteochondrosis, which affects common areas like the fetlock.
  • - A study measuring cartilage thickness in young horses found that ultrasonography had better accuracy compared to computed tomographic arthrography (CTA), with the best results at the distal sagittal ridge of the third metacarpal bone.
  • - While there was overall weak agreement between ultrasonography and histology, the findings indicated that cartilage thickness decreases with age, emphasizing the usefulness of ultrasonography for assessing cartilage in young horses.

  • Further tests diagnosed multicentric lymphoma, and chemotherapy was started.
  • After treatment, the lymphoma went into clinical remission, and the pneumatosis intestinalis resolved on follow-up scans, highlighting the need to investigate underlying causes of pneumatosis intestinalis, including cancer, after ruling out emergencies.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study implemented a structured lung ultrasound system using the COVID-RADS standard to assess COVID-19 cases, correlating ultrasound findings with disease severity and ventilatory needs.
  • - Analysis of 69 ultrasound exams showed certain patterns in lung involvement, with higher COVID-RADS scores linked to the need for increased oxygen support.
  • - The research highlights the utility of lung ultrasound as an accessible diagnostic tool during the pandemic, proposing a replicable system for future clinical use beyond COVID-19.
