Veterinary X-ray interpretation in minutes, not hours.

Acute, complete, closed-appearing, transverse to short-oblique fractures of the distal third of the right radius and ulna, with mild displacement, angulation and overriding. Residual lateral displacement and overriding of the radial fracture persist in the splint.

• No radiographic evidence of a pathologic fracture.
• Elbow and carpal joints congruent; growth plates open, appropriate for age.
• Probable mild soft-tissue swelling at the fracture site (equivocal).

Recommendation: an orthogonal view in the splint, since reduction can't be fully assessed on a single view.

No definite abnormality on this single lateral view. Two items are flagged for the veterinarian rather than guessed: possible prostatic enlargement (the region is poorly defined by bowel superimposition), and the urethra, which is only partly assessable, so calculi can't be excluded.

• Abundant intra-abdominal and subcutaneous fat: overweight body condition.
• Granular gastric and colonic contents, likely ingesta and feces; no obstruction.

Recommendation: a ventrodorsal view to complete the urinary tract assessment if there are urinary signs.
