Coelioscopic investigation in European eels (Anguilla anguilla)
2014, Journal of Exotic Pet MedicineCitation Excerpt :Endoscopic evaluation of the coelomic cavity showed the following advantages: reduced invasiveness, direct visualization and magnification of the target organs, and quick uneventful recoveries. Furthermore, the small incision required for the endoscopic technique has reduced risks of tissue adhesions and dehiscence of incision sites, which often result in coeliotomies.4-8,21 Coelioscopy allows clinicians to have direct visualization of the target organs and to collect diagnostic samples, thus improving the clinician’s diagnostic capabilities using a relatively noninvasive method.
Laparoscopy, a minimally-invasive technique for sex identification in cultured great sturgeon Huso huso
2011, AquacultureCitation Excerpt :To minimize the latter problem, we allowed 2 days for evacuation of the intestinal tract before applying our method. Regardless, the effectiveness evident in our results support other studies that have found endoscopy to be a useful technique for determining maturity status and sex of mature fish (Moccia et al., 1984; Ortenburger et al., 1996; Bryan et al., 2007; Wildhaber et al., 2005, 2007; Hurvitz et al., 2007). Our results further indicate that use of endoscopy can be effective for sturgeon that mature at relatively small sizes and earlier ages which we had fish with 7 kg weight as the smallest fish in present study.
