Pet X-ray machines and X-ray machines for people, the principle is the same, the occurrence of X-rays, belong to ionizing radiation. The difference is that the radiation dose of the X-ray machine used by people is very large, and it is necessary to make an independent shielding room; The dose of X-ray machine radiation for pets is very small, generally do not need to do separate shielding, and the impact on people and animals is small enough to be negligible.
In addition, with the development of medical technology and scientific level, the old pet X-ray machine has been gradually replaced by pet DR, which is a digital X-ray inspection equipment specialized in pet X-ray shooting. Pet DR Refers to a new technology for digital X-ray photography directly under computer control. The amorphous silicon flat panel detector is used to convert the X-ray information through the pet into a digital signal, and the image is reconstructed by the computer and a series of image post-processing.
In addition, due to the wide dynamic range of DR Technology, X-ray quantum detection efficiency (DQE) is high, and has a wide exposure tolerance, even if the exposure conditions are slightly poor, it can obtain a good image. The appearance of DR Breaks the concept of traditional X-ray image, realizes the dream transformation from analog X-ray image to digital X-ray image, and has greater advantages than CR system.
Due to the adoption of digital technology, pet DR Can perform various image post-processing according to clinical needs, such as automatic image processing technology, edge enhancement clear technology, zoom roaming, image stitching, window width adjustment of interest area window, distance, area, density measurement and other rich functions.
Pet DR Mainly includes X-ray generator, flat detector, beam limiter, high voltage generator, image processing workstation and other parts. The beam limiter is a device for adjusting the X-ray radiation field and limiting the size of the radiation field. Used with the X-ray tube assembly, the rectangular field size of the X-ray can be adjusted continuously. Its function is to reduce the scattered X-ray and improve the quality of the photograph. At the same image quality, the X-ray dose of the flat detector is 30% lower than that of the CCD. Reduce X-ray radiation hazards to operators and pets.
So if the subject is to take the dog with the pet DR X-ray, there is no need to worry about the impact on the baby dog. Here is how to take care of the dog after pregnancy, please start from the following aspects:
1. Diet
For pregnant dogs, you need to feed nutritious food and supplement a certain amount of calcium. After conception, due to the enlargement of its uterus and the compression of the gastrointestinal tract, it is necessary to increase the number of feedings (three or four times a day), and an appropriate amount of coarse fiber foods such as vegetables can be added when feeding to avoid constipation. Eat small, frequent meals and don’t need to give your dog too much food at one time. Because the baby dog is still very small at this time, even if fed a lot of nutrients can not be absorbed, but the dog hemp will eat more and more fat, resulting in dystocia, especially small dogs.
In the second month of pregnancy, the appetite is gradually strong, but pay attention to the dog’s digestion, and keep the food clean to prevent premature birth or abortion caused by dysentery. You can appropriately give the dog more nutrition, but not too much, according to the needs of the dog to add as appropriate, the dog will become more and more able to eat, the belly is more and more obvious.
When a dog is pregnant, the biggest demand is protein. Therefore, you can appropriately give the dog to drink more dog special milk powder, and should give the dog to eat special dog food during pregnancy, so that the nutrition is more balanced. Of course, while ensuring the dog’s nutrition, it can not be because the dog wants to eat, so it has been giving the dog to eat. This is not good for the dog, only bad, the most direct is that it may cause difficult labor, bring danger to the dog.
In addition, there are a few things to pay attention to when feeding your dog. For example, do not feed your dog food that is not easily digested; Try to avoid processed meat or things that are half-cooked, undercold and overheated; Don’t feed spoiled food, and make sure drinking water is adequate and clean. In fact, even if the dog is not pregnant, the usual feeding should also try to do these requirements.
2. Sports
Do not let the pregnant dog do strenuous exercise, but also need moderate exercise (no exercise may cause obstructed labor), which is beneficial for labor. Appropriate to take the dog to the outdoor walk, more sun, help its health. When walking the dog, also pay attention to the leash, do not let the dog suddenly frightened by other dogs or have other aggressive behavior.
3. Deworming
When the dog is pregnant, it should pay more attention to deworming, and about 30 days can be used to deworming drugs, such as roundworms or tapeworms. This practice is to avoid the female dog due to infection and transmission to the puppies in the stomach, but not too much to avoid abortion.
4. You’re nearing your due date
The gestation period is about 60 days (generally 58-63 days is normal), and the dog gains weight at the end of pregnancy, the abdomen expands and bulges, and the breast increases and can squeeze out a small amount of freshwater secretions. During this period, we should often pay attention to the color of the secretions of the dog’s pubic region, and when the liquid is red, black, green and other colors, it should be immediately sent to the pet hospital.
5. Delivery environment
The most basic delivery bed should be made of solid wooden boxes, the bottom is toilet paper if the liquid in the delivery through the blanket can be dried by the toilet paper, the toilet paper above is a thicker blanket, soft texture can ensure the safety of the puppy born. When the delivery is over, the washing is removed and a new blanket is put on.
Step 6: Production
Before the dog is produced, there will generally be obvious changes, although each dog is different, in general, bad temper, increased frequency of urination, like to hide in the dark and so on. The dog can generally complete the production independently, the owner does not need help, if it is usually a high degree of dependence on the owner of the dog may need the owner’s help. In addition, the dog may have a long interval between the two births, one or two hours may also be possible, the owner should be patient, observe the dog more. After the birth of some dogs will become more vigilant, more aggressive, owners should pay attention to avoid being attacked.
