Throught the history of veterinary medicine as well as medicine, there has always been an effort to raise the standard so that the animals have the best possible medical care. There have always been certain limitiations when comparing veterinary medicine to human medicine, but in principle the same factors affect the image quality itself. The biggest challenge when imaging animals is to reduce as much as possible the artifacts that can be caused by the movement of the animal during the imaging. In the case of large animals such as a horse or cow, the big obstacle to proper imaging is the size of the animal itself, so they are only done in a state of emergency. When switching from analog to digital imaging, new devices are not usually bought due to financial reasons. X-ray imaging can be divided into: dental techniques ( parallel technique and bisected angle technique), imaging of the appendicular skeleton, imaging of perpendicular skeleton and imaging of the spine. As with humans, each projection requires certain rules such as the position of the animal, the direction of the central beam and the setting of mA and kV. CT and MRI are still not standard practice like in humans, but mostly serve as confirmation for a specific diagnosis seen on X- ray projections or to expand the scope of the examination. Ultrasound is the method that is most often used along with X-ray. The simplicity of the method and the relatively easy possibility of repetition is the reason for its frequent use.
