Twenty apparently healthy buffaloes were withdrawn of feed and water for 48 hours. Buffaloes were administered with fluids and were subjected to endoscopy every 12 hours. Olympus™ [GIF V70] flexible video endoscope was passed through the ventral nasal meatus, the pharynx, oesophagus and then into the reticulo-rumen in physically restrained buffaloes. The entire reticulum and part of the rumen could be visualized, when the animals were off feed and water for at least 48 hours and evacuations of rumen contents were done even after 48 hours of starvation to visualize the rumen in six buffaloes. The reticulum appeared light brown to pink coloured with honeycomb shape and the rumen appeared smooth, shiny pink, with numerous papillae throughout its surface. The procedure was well tolerated by all the buffaloes and satisfactory reticular and ruminal images could be obtained including biopsy.
二十头看似健康的水牛被禁食禁水 48 小时。水牛给予补液并每 12 小时进行一次内窥镜检查。在物理约束的水牛中，奥林巴斯™[GIF V70]柔性视频内窥镜通过鼻后腔、咽、食管进入网胃。当动物禁食禁水至少 48 小时并且即使在禁食 48 小时后进行瘤胃内容物排空以可视化六头水牛的瘤胃时，可以观察到整个网胃和部分瘤胃。当动物禁食禁水至少 48 小时并且即使在禁食 48 小时后进行瘤胃内容物排空以可视化六头水牛的瘤胃时，可以观察到整个网胃和部分瘤胃。网胃呈浅棕色到粉红色，呈蜂窝状，瘤胃呈光滑、有光泽的粉红色，表面有许多乳头。该程序被所有水牛耐受良好，并获得了包括活检在内的满意的网胃和瘤胃图像。
