Abstract

Herein are illustrations of the major radiographic features of the bovine manus. The five standard views normally used to radiographically examine the equine carpus are presented, as well as dorsopalmar (A.P.) and oblique views of the digits. A lateral projection of the digits is not included because the unavoidable superimposition which occurs on mediolateral or lateromedial views makes interpretation of the resulting films somewhat difficult.
