Abstract

Radiography of the foot is considered a golden standard technique enables the veterinarians to render a subjective evaluation of the foot in donkeys. The current study aimed to characterize objectively the baseline radiometric data of normal forefeet in donkeys to assess both of the nature and extent of anatomical changes occurring in foot affections. Lateromedial and dorsopalmar radiographic examination were performed on 48 forefeet of 24 clinically normal donkeys of both sexes. Four angles and 10 morphometeric distances were measured in latromedial radiographs and 10 morphometric measurements were measured in dorsopalmer radiographs. All hoof components appeared in the radiographic films were described and morphometric measurements were reported as minimum and maximum values, mean ± standard deviation (SD). The study presented a descriptive reference data for morphometric radiographic parameters of the forefeet from lateromedial and dorsopalmer radiographs in clinically normal donkeys, to assess any changes in hoof conformation and biomechanics associated with hoof affections.
