This session will review tips and tricks available to veterinary clinicians for maximizing radiographic yield to diagnose mechanical gastrointestinal obstruction.

By the end of the session, the attendees will be able to diagnose the three main types of mechanical gastrointestinal obstructions with radiography: pyloric outflow obstruction, small intestinal mechanical obstruction, and linear foreign body.

Numerous case examples will be presented.
