Title: Ultrasonographic anatomy of the palmar metacarpus and fetlock in buffalo calves (Bubalus bubalis)
Abstract: The ultrasonographic anatomy of the palmar metacarpus and fetlock in buffalo calves is presented. The SDFT and DDFT had an hour-glass shape from proximal to distal on the limb. The thickest palmo-dorsal measurement of SDFT and DDFT located in the mid metacarpal region 12 and 14 cm below the ACB respectively. The left and right SDFT and DDFI tendon did not have significant differences (P>0.05) in palmo-dorsal measurements. Longitudinal ultrasonograph at the midmetacarpal showed similar echogenicity of SDFT and DDFT.
