Figure 1
Radiographic views of the right stifle of a 9-year-old neutered male golden retriever dog, with a history of acute onset of lameness. A — Mediolateral view with arrows pointing at the proximal and distal margins of an intra-articular area of increased opacity mimicking joint effusion. B — Craniocaudal view with arrows pointing at the most medial and lateral margins of increased opacity area. The medial area mimics medial buttress which is seen with chronic cranial cruciate ligament disease. C — Mediolateral view of the contralateral stifle with arrow pointing at the normal fat pad area.
