Sažetak
X-radiography and ultrasound imaging are well established and widely used in veterinary practice, but it is not the same situation with radioisotope imaging. In veterinary practice the above mentined methods of nuclear medicine are developed only in two countries in Europe. That is not doubt due, so bar, to the diffucultes in obtaining a satisfactory supply of radioisotopes and to the relatively hight cost of scaning equipment. However, in collaboration with the department of Radiation Protection and Nuclear Medicine of the medical Faculty in Zagreb, Croatia, we have chance to develop the use of those methodes in clinical veterinary practice in Zagreb. That is way in this paper an overview of the application of radioisotopes imaging in veterinary medicine is given. In small animals skeletal changes, lung perusions, brain lesions, space occupying lesions in the liver and its function and heart function can be usefully searched by a gamma camera and its associated computer. In equine practice scintigraphy of bones, liver, heart, pulmonaly circulation and ventilation is described. The largest amount of radioactive material is used during gamma camera scaning of the sceletons of horses. In these cases the radiation dose 1-2 m from the animal is approximately 3 mikro Sv/h. That is why the protection of personal involved in radioisotope scanning in veterinary medicine must be also regulated by low of radiation protection. Also, the animals should be confined to a controlled area for 2-3 days after scanning before being returned to their oweners. After this period the area must be cleaned.
