Have you ever seen a health exam on a cownose ray? These are done to ensure that they are maintaining the best health and well-being. During this procedure, the animal is anesthetized, and the husbandry and veterinary teams work together to draw blood, take measurements and weights, ultrasound the animal to look at their organs and do a thorough visual external examination. After the procedure, the ray is placed in a separate system for monitoring and waking up before being returned to its habit

Radiological and imaging techniques, such as ultrasound, play a crucial role in intensive care settings by enabling precise and minimally invasive procedures. Dr. Abhishek Shukla demonstrates the use of a linear probe to effectively locate veins for venous access. Ultrasound imaging helps distinguish veins from arteries by identifying differences in their structure, pulsatility, and flow patterns, ensuring safer and more accurate interventions in critically ill patients. #AasthaCares #SmallWinsB
