Chaudhary Sarwan Kumar Himachal Pradesh Agriculture University, Palampur

Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishvavidyalaya (renamed as Chaudhary Sarwan Kumar Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishvavidyalaya in June, 2001) was established on 1st November, 1978.The College of Agriculture (established in May, 1966) formed the nucleus of the new farm University. It is ICAR accredited and ISO 9001:2015 certified institution. The Indian Council of Agricultural Research has ranked this University at eleventh place among all farm universities of the country. The University has been given the mandate for making provision for imparting education in agriculture and other allied branches of learning, furthering the advancement of learning and prosecution of research and undertaking extension of such sciences, especially to the rural people of Himachal Pradesh. Over the years, this University has contributed significantly in transforming the farm scenario of Himachal Pradesh. It has developed human resources, varieties and technologies and transferred these to farming community enabling the State to receive the “Krishikarman award” of Govt. of India four times in row for food grain production among small states of the country. Today, the State has earned its name for hill agricultural diversification and the farming community has imposed its faith in the University.

    SKELETAL RADIOGRAPHY IN DOGS
    (CSKHPKV, Palampur, 2018-07-16) Bhat, Rohit B; Tyagi, S. P.
    The present study was done for standardization of skeletal radiography in dogs, to record prevalence of skeletal affections in dogs and to develop a ready reckoner atlas of skeletal radiography in dogs. The study was conducted on the clinical cases of different animal species presented to the Department of Veterinary Surgery and Radiology, DGCN College of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, CSKHP Agricultural University, Palampur, India from April, 2017 to May, 2018. The formulation of tentative radiographic technique charts was done by conducting radiographic trials on four skeletally normal dogs of different age groups. Further, the technique charts were validated in 30 skeletally normal dogs. The Standard Operative Protocol was established based on the observations made during the radiographic trial. The role of computer software intervention for improving the radiographic images was evaluated and 11 out of 30 radiographs taken during validation process of technique charts were improved from ‘fair’ to ‘good’ quality. The overall prevalence of skeletal disorders in canines were calculated to be 16.28 per cent. The overall incidence of fractures among those skeletal disorders was 13.94. Majority of skeletal disorders in dogs occurred in juvenile group (48.18%) followed by adult (40.93%) and senile (10.88%). The distribution of skeletal disorders was more in males (68.91%) against 31.08% in females but the incidence was more or less similar to females (22.16% against 22.38% in males). Etiology-wise the major known causes of skeletal disorders in dogs were determined to be trauma (53.36%). A ready-reckoner of normal skeletal radiographic anatomy of dogs was prepared by obtaining the radiographs of skeletal system in different views of a normal healthy skeletally mature 5-year old dog. Subsequently the radiographs of selected clinical cases of dogs representative of different skeletal affections as presented during the period of study were also used alongside to underscore the differences in between normal and abnormal radiographic features.
