• Brain MRI - This image of a dog's head shows a normal brain. However the dog's nose has evidence of rhinitis. Rhinitis is an inflammation of the nasal mucous membranes.
• Back Problems - Like people dogs have back and spine problems caused by bulging discs. In one of the following images you can see a dog with chronic disc herniation and protrusion causing spinal cord compression. Dogs can also get an inflammation of the disc material as seen on the next page.
• Foreign Body and Ongoing Infection - In the case below the dog had a foreign body lodged deep within its foot for several months. After multiple surgeries the problem remained.
• Digestive Problems - This is a cat having an abdominal MRI. This cat was having trouble digesting its food and the MRI was to determine the cause. MRI is excellent for diagnosis of internal abdominal problems.
