A video demonstrating a bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) on a horse including slide preparations. A BAL will sample cells from the lower airways and can help diagnose RAO (heaves) in horses
@natalielogie Yeah but was THIS horse sick or was a camera put inside it just to look at it's insides and show vet students? This sort of thing is alright if it's being done to help an animal that is already sick but if there is nothing wrong with said animal, I find it wrong, cruel and selfish.
It is a camera designed to go into the horses lung to provide accurate information about their medical conditions. Similarly there are such scopes for humans and while the process might be uncomfortable, appropriate analgesic is given to the horses to keep them as comfortable as possible. This is still an important process to give the horses an accurate diagnosis.
