Derkachev D.Yu., Orobets V.A., Letov I.I.

Summary

Hip dysplasia is relevant now, because it poses a potential risk of violation of the musculoskeletal function of hind limbs. This pathology is often hereditary, but not a small role in the development of dysplasia play fast growth, over-feeding, and injury. In most cases the roentgenologist makes a preliminary diagnosis of hip dysplasia (no degree) visually. Digital image obtained by computer radiography in veterinary software VetRay Vision4 was treated and mark-up, which allows us to simplify the work of radiologists in the performance of the layout and reduce the time between diagnosis and treatment of hip dysplasia.

Key words: dogs, diagnosis, X-ray, Computer radiography, dysplasia, hip dysplasia, true position, Norberg angle, introduction index.
