Evaluation of Intraosseous Excretory Urography Using Iodixanol for Renal Imaging in Budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus)

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study demonstrates that intraosseous injection of iodixanol into the proximal tibiotarsal bone provides a reliable, safe, and practical method for diagnostic excretory urography in budgerigars. The technique offers clear visualisation of renal structures and can be an alternative when intravenous access is limited in avian patients.

Factors impacting the complexity of the leporid intracranial joint

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 1, Page 28-39, January 2026.
Anatomy of the intracranial joint and the 2D semi‐landmarks used to capture complexity in the intracranial joint. (a) The intracranial joint can be seen here (in red) between the parietal and occipital dorsally and the basioccipital and basisphenoid ventrally. In hares (as in this figure) the interparietals are fused to obliteration.
