Introducing FluoroCollar

Metal markers of known dimensions are commonly used during fluoroscopy for objective estimation of distance, velocity, and area measurements of anatomical structures and bolus flow within the aerodigestive tract. While a coin (e.g., dime) taped midline beneath the chin is a simple option for use with human patients, this approach is not always feasible with furry companion animals. 

FluoroCollar is our solution to this problem. 

FluoroCollar is a reusable, self-adjusting plastic neck collar with a stainless-steel disc specifically designed for fluoroscopy with companion animals. Simply stretch the collar to place it around the animal’s neck, with the metal disc positioned midline at the ventral neck. The familiarity of wearing a collar eliminates stress or distraction during use while also ensuring the scaling marker stays put throughout the procedure. Three collar sizes are available to easily accommodate a wide variety of dog and cat breed sizes.
