Video library
Welcome to the BSAVA Video Library. This page gathers together all the clinical videos that are published alongside our manual chapters and Companion articles. If you have access to the source content you will be able to play the video from this page, as long as you are logged in. If you do not have access, clicking on the video title will take you to the source article or chapter. You can either use a library pass, or buy the chapter or article, to gain access to all the videos and the full text of that chapter or article. Please note that library passes cannot be used on Companion articles - BSAVA members already have access to Companion. Alternatively you can buy the entire book to gain access to all the videos in that book. You can use the filters on the left to focus on your topics of interest and you can also search the site and filter by content type=video. Please contact us with any feedback or suggestions.

A Scottish Terrier exhibiting pelvic limb gait abnormalities during exercise. The limbs demonstrate profound hypertonicity and progress to a bunny hop. The dog had moderate clinical signs compatible with Scotty cramp. (Courtesy of C Chrisman) (See page 248 in the Manual)
(a) A 6-year-old Boxer showing severe depression (obtundation).
(b) A 1-year-old mixed Shepherd dog with metabolic encephalopathy showing both severe depression and inappropriate mental function. (See page 137 in the Manual)
A 4-year-old Pug standing in one position, staring vacantly. This demeanor is compatible with severe obtundation. (See page 137 in the Manual)
Single- and two-handed manipulation of steering wheels.
The sit to stand exercise helps strengthen hindlimb extensor muscles as well as encourage full stifle flexion. Treats can be used to encourage the patient to assume a sitting position, where both stifle joints are fully flexed and the animal is sitting squarely. The patient is then coaxed into a standing position and the exercise is repeated. In weak patients, the exercise should be repeated until early signs of fatigue develop. (See page 492 in the Manual)
The caudal vena cava in this dog runs transversely across the image. These images show echogenic ‘smoke’ within the lumen of the vessel. The dog had immune-mediated haemolytic anemia and was in a known hypercoagulable state.
This dog had a large subcutaneous mass in the humeral region, histologically diagnosed as schwannoma. The mass is very heterogeneous with irregular hypoechoic and anechoic foci.
The same dog as in Soft tissue neoplasm (1). Colour Doppler shows flow within many of the foci, confirming the highly vascular nature of this neoplasm.
Normal spinal reflexes in a dog.
A 7-year-old crossbred dog with immune haemolytic anaemia, which developed abdominal distension and tachypnoea. This clip shows a small volume of free abdominal fluid surrounding the head of the spleen, superficially and to the left of the screen. As the transducer is moved caudally, the tail of the spleen is seen to be mildly expanded and relatively hypoechoic to the remainder of the organ. (Courtesy of F. Barr)
Same dog as in Splenic infarction (1). This clip, using Power Doppler, shows good perfusion in the main part of the spleen. (Courtesy of F. Barr)
Same dog as in Splenic infarction (1). This clip, also using Power Doppler, shows no detectable blood flow in the expanded, hypoechoic tail of the spleen, supporting the presumptive diagnosis of splenic infarction. (Courtesy of F. Barr)
Thrombi are seen in the splenic veins of a dog with immune-mediated haemolytic anemia. The thrombi are mildly echogenic but show most clearly as filling defects within the vessel when Power Doppler is used.
In this case the lesion localization would typically be to the left vestibular system (slow phase towards the side of the lesion).
A Boston Terrier with a mild left-sided head tilt exhibiting a spontaneous nystagmus with the fast phase to the right. (See page 195 in the Manual)
A dog with spontaneous nystagmus in a predominately horizontal field. Note that this varies and can become intermittently vertical. (See page 195 in the Manual)
Spring test on the left wing of a Barbary Falcon. The bird has a fracture of the right coracoid. The spring tests of both proximal and distal parts of the wing are normal with the wing returning to normal resting position after the wing is extended and released. Normally this would be performed on a conscious bird, however for welfare reasons this video was taken of an anaesthetised bird
Spring test on the right wing of a Barbary Falcon. The bird has a fracture of the right coracoid. The spring test of the distal wing is normal, while the test of the proximal joint shows a failure to return to normal resting position. Normally this would be performed on a conscious bird, however for welfare reasons this video was taken of an anaesthetised bird
5-year-old male neutered German Shepherd Dog with continuous seizure activity characterized by both myoclonic movements of the head and neck, and ‘drop’ attacks. This dog also suffered from generalized tonic–clonic seizures. (See page 118 in the Manual)
