Dr Keith SpargoBSc, BSc(Hons), MSc(Vet Sc), BVSc Tel: +27(0) 12 529 8138 Dr Spargo’s research focus for his MSc degree was on catastrophic musculoskeletal injuries in Thoroughbred racehorses in South Africa and investigated the types of fractures that occur and potential influencing factors. This is a research area that still holds great interest to him, especially the use of diagnostic imaging modalities for the early detection of subchondral bone changes that may be an early sign of potential fracturing of the bone. Currently, Dr Spargo is working on describing the Computed Tomography anatomy of the Temminck’s Pangolin as part of his residency in diagnostic imaging. |
