 | Welcome to the Colorado State University Veterinary Auscultation
Library.
 | This site contains a collection of auscultation sounds from normal and
diseased animals. The site is divided into separate pages for the common veterinary
species. Within each species page, the content is organized by organ system
including cardiac, respiratory, and abdominal auscultation. Additional case
information, video, and graphics are included when available for the cases.
|
 | Headphones are recommended for getting the best
acoustical clarity from
these recordings.
|
 | As with many projects, this one is under development. We are
making efforts to improve sound quality but you will notice that there is considerable
background noise in some of the recordings (I particularly like the barn swallows in the
background of several bovine cases). We will strive to minimize these problems and
make the best recordings that we can.
|
 | A number of clinicians and technicians at the CSU Veterinary Teaching
Hospital have contributed case material for the development of this site. It is
their collaboration and continued support that makes this Auscultation Library a
continuing success.
