A História Da Ultrassonografia Veterinária Em Pequenos Animais

Abstract

RESUMO:A ultrassonografia é uma técnica de diagnóstico por imagem que permite muitas aplicações em diversos campos da medicina veterinária. Todavia, a aplicação inicial da técnica teve fins industriais e somente nos meados de 1940 é que houve a introdução do ultrassom como método diagnóstico. A primeira aplicação na medicina veterinária ocorreu no ano de 1966 para detecção de gestação em ovinos. Desde então, melhorias na qualidade dos equipamentos combinadas a uma maior consciência dos benefícios do ultrassom como técnica imaginológica levaram ao uso desta nos diversos campos da medicina veterinária. O objetivo deste trabalho foi compilar a cronologia de fatos que possibilitam o conhecimento da história da evolução deste método desde os primórdios até os dias atuais.

However, in the beginning was used as industrial purposes, and only in mid-1940's ultrasonography was introduced as a diagnostic method in medicine. The first application in veterinary medicine took place in 1966 to detect pregnancy in sheep. Since then, improvements in the quality of equipment combined with a greater awareness of the benefits of ultrasound as imaging procedures led to the use of various fields of veterinary medicine. The aim of this work was to describe in a chronological order the development of this tool of diagnostic since the beginning until nowadays.

“…O exame de ultrassom como meio de diagnóstico por imagem, tem se mostrado muito eficiente na Medicina Veterinária, tendo inúmeros benefícios e sendo um procedimento seguro para o paciente e o operador (Seoane et al, 2011). A escolha do exame é imprescindível para o diagnóstico, deste modo, foi realizado exame de ultrassonografia abdominal para avaliar a paciente.…”

Pulsed-wave doppler ultrasound in canine reproductive system – Part 1: technical aspects

“…Since the introduction of ultrasonic waves as a diagnostic tool in 1942, medicine has been evolving in the identification of diseases and improvements in prognosis. In fact, ultrasound has been become an essential tool in clinical practices, including veterinary medicine, as it adds dynamic measurement to the clinical examination and improves quality of daily medical care for patients (Carvalho & Addad, 2009;Genc et al, 2016;Seoane et al, 2016;Gupta et al, 2019). Among all types of ultrasounds, the B-mode (commonly referred to as "brightness mode" or two-dimensional) is used to evaluate the interaction between the ultrasonic wave and the various organic tissues through two-dimensional images on gray scale.…”

Use of thermography in skin grafts after the application of therapeutic ultrasound in Wistar rats

“…Within the clinical and surgical medical routine, numerous practices assist in promoting the functional recovery of tissues. One of the procedures that has gained prominence today is the therapeutic ultrasound (UST), used in human medicine 7 . According to Farcic et al 8 , ultrasound is a category of sonic energy of high penetrability in the tissues that during the contact has the ability to originate cellular transformations due to the absorption of the mechanical energy.…”
