Area of Science:

Veterinary Medicine
Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

Computed radiography (CR) is a valuable diagnostic imaging tool for equine veterinarians.
CR offers numerous advantages in clinical practice.
The primary drawback of CR is the initial investment in time and financial resources.

Purpose of the Study:

To highlight the benefits and challenges of implementing CR in equine veterinary practice.
To discuss the current and future accessibility of CR technology in veterinary medicine.

Main Methods:

This is a review and discussion of the current state and future potential of CR in equine veterinary medicine.
No specific experimental methods were detailed in the abstract.

Main Results:

CR is currently utilized in various academic and private equine practices globally.
The cost of CR implementation remains a significant barrier for some practices.

Conclusions:

CR presents a powerful imaging modality for equine veterinarians.
Advancements in computer-based technology are anticipated to lower CR costs, increasing its availability to smaller practices.
The growing veterinary market and a saturated human market are spurring the development of specialized CR software and algorithms for veterinary applications.
