The aims of this research were to evaluate mean echogenicity (ME) of the deep and superficial digital flexor tendons (DDFT and SDFT), the interosseous muscle (IM), and the accessory ligament of the deep digital flexor tendon (ALDDFT) of the metacarpal region in neonatal foals, and determine the effect of sex, side and body weight on this quantitative ultrasonographic evaluation. Thirteen orthopedically sound neonatal foals were examined. Four areas of study (1A, 1B, 2A, 2B) were identified. Transverse scans of the DDFT, SDFT, IM and ALDDFT were obtained, recorded, and analyzed. The most echogenic structures were the ALDDFT and DDFT, while the SDFT was significantly less echogenic than all other structures (P<0.05). No influence of sex, forelimb, or body weight was observed. The echogenicity of the tenodesmic structures of foals partially overlapped that reported in the metacarpal region in adult horses, except for IM.
本研究的目的是评估新生马驹掌骨区域的指深屈肌腱和指浅屈肌腱（DDFT和SDFT）、骨间肌（IM）以及指深屈肌腱副韧带（ALDDFT）的平均回声强度（ME），并确定性别、侧别和体重对这种定量超声评估的影响。对13匹骨骼健全的新生马驹进行了检查。确定了四个研究区域（1A、1B、2A、2B）。获取、记录并分析了DDFT、SDFT、IM和ALDDFT的横向扫描图像。回声最强的结构是ALDDFT和DDFT，而SDFT的回声明显低于所有其他结构（P<0.05）。未观察到性别、前肢或体重的影响。除IM外，马驹腱结构的回声强度与成年马掌骨区域报告的部分重叠。
