The experience of the use of melography in neurological syndrome
Abstract
Sick animals with damage to the spinal cord constitute the most difficult group among all victims as a result of vertebral and spinal cord injuries. In the latter case, the spinal cord, the nerve roots, and also the cerebral membranes are damaged; irreversible destructive changes develop in the nerve tissue within 48 hours of the injury. Urgent treatment allows them to be warned, but for this purpose an objective early diagnosis is required. From the point of view of diagnosis, the use of myelography is important, which in the short term makes it possible to determine the localization and nature of the damage, as well as its complications in a certain part of the spine, which often causes the death of animals remaining unnoticed.
Accumulation of myelography experience in dogs with spinal injuries is an urgent task that will contribute to improving the effectiveness of providing surgical care.
