    An 11-year-old cat with a 4-months history of lethargy, inappetence, dysphagia, partial mandibular paralysis and weight loss, was euthanized due to the rapid deterioration of his condition. Post-mortem radiographic examination revealed severe bone lysis of the left zygomatic arch, temporal and parietal bone. Magnetic resonance imaging of the head showed a large isointense mass of the left side of the skull associated with extensive lysis of the parietal and temporal bone and destruction of the adjacent tympanic bulla. Gross and histological examinations revealed a pulmonary adenosquamous carcinoma of the left lung, with metastases to the spleen, liver, mesenteric lymph nodes, mesentery, diaphragm, abdominal aorta, left orbit and calvaria. No limb or digit metastases were detected

    The present invention relates to a table for diagnostic analyses for veterinary or medical use. In particular, the present invention relates to a non-magnetic diagnostic table (1), comprising a support structure (2) and a platform (3), characterized in that said platform (3) is radiotransparent and that said table (1) includes a pneumatic system for raising said platform (3) comprising stabilizer means (100), said stabilizer means (100) comprising valve means (15) that are actuated by control means (16) which receive information on the vertical positioning of said platform (3) by means of mechanical drive

    The inventions relates to a mobile radiolucent non magnetic table for multiple diagnostic purposes, for veterinary use in large animals (equine and bovine)and for medical use. The invention provides a table for use in both x-ray diagnostics, which need readiolucent materials, and magnetic resonance imaging diagnostics which require non magnetic material. A further important feature of this table is its high carrying capacity (which amounts to 3000 kg) as well as its high movement versatility, so that the table can be adapted, at any moment and in a few seconds, to any kind of diagnostic instruments and to any kind of large animals, particularly horses. Furthermore, the unit may also be used in clinical medicine for obese patient

    As in many other animal species, also in equine patients carpal tunnel syndrome is considered a compartimental syndrome due to increased volume of one or more structures included in the carpal canal that induced a compression on the vasculo-nervous trunk. The causes can be different, it is essential to recognize the underlying pathology in order to have a precise prognosis and establish an appropriate therapy. This paper describes the clinical and Magnetic Resonance findings in three cases of carpal tunnel syndrome
