    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Radiology
    • Diagnostic Imaging
    • Spinal Anatomy

    Background:

    • Epidural space imaging is crucial for diagnosing spinal conditions.
    • Non-ionic contrast agents offer potential safety advantages.
    • Metrizamide is a water-soluble, non-ionic contrast agent.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of Metrizamide epidurography for visualizing the L7-S1 interspace in dogs.
    • To assess the safety and potential adverse effects of Metrizamide in the canine epidural space.

    Main Methods:

    • Metrizamide was injected into the epidural spaces of six dogs.
    • Multiple epidurograms were performed on each dog.
    • Histological examination of epidural tissues was conducted post-mortem.

    Main Results:

    • The L7-S1 interspace was consistently well-outlined by Metrizamide.
    • No adverse complications were observed in the dogs during the study.
    • Histological analysis revealed no inflammatory changes compared to controls.

    Conclusions:

    • Metrizamide epidurography is a safe and effective method for outlining the canine L7-S1 interspace.
    • The contrast agent did not induce significant inflammatory responses in the epidural tissues.
