Cellulitis diagnosis

medical illustration of Heart worm disease life cycle shows the transmission sequence of the parasitic larvae, Dirofilaria immitis, from an infected feeding mosquito, migration and maturation of the roundworm through the tissues, to eventually infiltrate the heart and lungs of a canine ( cat or dog).
Next medical illustration of Cauda equina syndrome ( CES) occurs when the nerve bundle at the lower end of the spinal cord (caudal equina) become compressed leading to functional issues with the bladder and distal bowel. It is most commonly caused by a prolapsed lumbar disc. This medical legal exhibit shows the anatomy of the lower spine (sectioned), inflamed vertebral disc at L5-S1 with compression of the caudal equina, and an overhead view of the L5 damaged disc.
