“…Nasal disease presents a diagnostic challenge due to non-specific clinical signs resulting from different nasal disorders (Tasker et al 1999, Lefebvre et al 2005. The radiological features of common nasal diseases have been described (Sullivan et al 1986, Sullivan et al 1987, Russo et al 2000.…”

“…The radiological features of common nasal diseases have been described (Sullivan et al 1986, Sullivan et al 1987, Russo et al 2000. Previous studies have shown radiography to have a poor specificity in differentiating inflammatory rhinitis from neoplasia or fungal rhinitis (Tasker et al 1999, Lefebvre et al 2005. However high accuracy and positive predictive value was found when differentiating rhinitis and nasal neoplasia based on the combination of radiographic signs (Russo et al 2000).…”

Durand, A., Finck, M., Sullivan, M., and Hammond, G.

Veterinary Journal, 209, There may be differences between this version and the published version. You are advised to consult the publisher's version if you wish to cite from it.http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/118346/ OBJECTIVE:To assess the ventro 20° rostral-dorsocaudal oblique (V20R-DCdO) projection for canine nasal disease as an alternative to the dorsoventral intra-oral (DVIO) view. METHODS:Thirty-one dogs with nasal disease underwent radiography and CT with final diagnosis achieved through rhinoscopy, biopsy or cytology. Three independent observers, blinded to diagnosis, reviewed the nasal radiographs on two separate occasions. Intra-and inter-observer agreement and level of confidence on radiographic diagnosis was evaluated and radiographic diagnosis was compared with CT and definitive diagnosis. RESULTS:The V20R-DCdO projection of canine nasal cavities was feasible in anaesthetised patients and gave diagnostic quality images in most dogs. Assessment of this view showed moderate to substantial agreement with CT diagnosis but gave lower confidence in diagnosis. Interpretation of this radiographic projection had substantial to almost perfect repeatability but moderate reproducibility. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE:The V20R-DCdO projection may be used as a valuable initial screening tool for canine nasal pathology in practices without access to advanced imaging, although CT is still likely to provide greater diagnostic information.

A 12-year-old male English Pointer was examined due to a soft-tissue swelling at the medial canthus of the right orbital region, which was causing facial deformity. The dog had epiphora, purulent nasal discharge, epistaxis, dyspnea, and progressive weight loss. An intraoral mass was observed near the right maxillary premolars. Neoplastic disease was diagnosed based on ancillary tests, which included blood work, skull and intraoral radiographs, ocular ultrasonography and computed tomography. Histopathology revealed transitional carcinoma involving the nasal and oral cavities, maxilla, bony orbit and retrobulbar space. Nasal tumors represent approximately 2% of all tumors diagnosed in this species. Transitional carcinoma is the second most common type of malignant epithelial tumor in the nasal sinuses. This case illustrates the extensive destruction of the soft and bony tissues of the face, including the bony orbit that this type of tumor can cause.

“…Estas vantagens permitem que este seja um dos procedimentos mais indicados como método diagnóstico prévio nos casos suspeitos de afecção nasal, entretanto, não o torna exame de excelência diagnóstica, pois a interpretação radiográfica da cavidade nasal e das estruturas circundantes muitas vezes é prejudicada pela sobreposição de imagens, posicionamento inadequado do cão, além da variabilidade racial e estrutural do crânio destes animais (MYER, 1994;DOUST;SULLIVAN, 2004;DAVIDSON et al, 2004;POWDER;ROSE;CRAWFORD, 2006;DAVIDSON et al, 2004;LEFEBVRE;KUEHN;WORTINGER, 2005;ASHBAUGH, 2013;AULER et al, 2014) Já a tomografia computadorizada de cabeça (TCC), além de excelente ferramenta diagnóstica, vem também, há algum tempo, sendo indicada para avaliar o estadiamento do curso de afecções neoplásicas, auxiliando na escolha da modalidade terapêutica e sugerindo o prognóstico (LEFEBVRE; KUEHN;WORTINGER, 2005;ADAMS et al, 2009;AULER et al, 2015), principalmente em casos de câncer na região de cabeça e pescoço.…”
