Abstract

Summary: Point‐of‐care ultrasonography is a powerful tool for the practitioner in determining diagnosis and prognosis in unwell horses. Proper case selection and patient preparation are keys to successful ultrasonographic examinations of the equine thorax and abdomen. Practitioners can expand the use of their equipment to augment evaluations for multiple clinical complaints. The most common application for body cavity ultrasonography in the adult horse is acute abdominal pain. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
