Advanced Imaging Methods in Exotic and Wildlife Animals

Medicine of exotic, laboratory and wildlife animals develop very quickly in recent decade. As there is a need for the targeted therapy, advanced imaging methods are used much more commonly to provide detailed information about possible pathology. Moreover, advanced imaging methods are used to describe various animal/organ ecology, behaviour, anatomy, and physiology.
The goal of this special edition Research Topic "Advanced imaging methods in exotic (e.g., small mammals, avian exotics, reptiles, amphibians, gastropods, insects) laboratory and wildlife animals" is to show the progress made in past years on the development and using of imaging methods in various animal/organ/tissue anatomy, physiology, ecology, behaviour and/or pathology/disease in exotic and wildlife animal species. This article collection will inform and provide further possibilities of using imaging methods not only researchers, but also veterinary clinicians, biologists, and students.
This article collection is focused on state of art research articles, the use of advanced imaging methods or novel approaches in exotic and wildlife animal species. Articles focused on laboratory animals are also welcomed (rodents, rabbits, carnivores - dogs and cats excluded, monkey, etc.) Suggested research topics:
- Computed tomography or micro-CT
- Magnetic Resonance
- Endoscopy
- Echocardiography
- Radiography
- Ultrasound
- Correlated imaging

Only relevant articles to the Research topic will be acceptable.
