Opinions on X-rays?

Postby sgtpepper » Thu May 28, 2015 1:31 pm

Well, I know this is not the right place to ask this, but...
I've been running back and forth with Dino and Zaura, and finally, we managed to make some xrays and some blood tests (just biochemistry, but they are in standard).
The problem is that no vet that i've spoken to (and i've contacted quite a bunch) is experienced enough to interpret their x rays. They all say that "as far as I can see they are ok", but they all admitted that they don't know too much about avian x rays (even if they say " they have experience" with avian patients).

All I know is about the appearance of the heart-liver hourglass, and the lack of it in case of enlarged liver.
Soooo, now I'm in the process of finding some US/UK avian vets and getting opinions on these photos, but meanwhile I'm posting here, because I'm really eager to find out more!

And again, any opinion is more than welcome!
Thanks:)

I wish that I could but they are too bright for me to tell the difference in the organs they look like one big lump to me.

But, can you repost them in their entirety? Because I can only see a part of them...
