Ocular ultrasound in cats: interview with Dr. Anna Zurlo

“Ocular assessment is often underestimated during the initial evaluation of polytraumatized patients.”

With this clear message, Anna Zurlo — second-year PhD student at the University of Milan, Department of Veterinary and Animal Science — shares her experience and research focused on the importance of early ocular evaluation in feline trauma cases.

Through the use of high-frequency ultrasound and the right probe design, her work aims to improve diagnostic accuracy and promote vision-preserving treatments for stray cats in critical care.
