CONTRAST RHINOGRAPHY IN THE RADIOGRAPHIC EVALUATION OF DISEASES AFFECTING THE NASAL CAVITY, NASOPHARYNX, AND PARANASAL SINUSES IN THE DOG

Abstract
Positive‐contrast rhinography is a simple noninvasive procedure that can be used for radiographic evaluation of the nasal cavity, nasopharynx, and paranasal sinuses in the dog. After assuring the safety of the procedure, it was employed for evaluation of six dogs with nasal and paranasal disease. Contrast rhinography contributed to the identification and assessment of the disease and aided in the diagnosis in dogs where survey radiography was not helpful. This paper proposes the use of positive‐contrast rhinography for radiographic evaluation of diseases affecting the nasal cavity, nasopharynx, and paranasal sinuses in the dog.
