01 /What's visible
Canine ventrodorsal pelvis + bilateral stifles from the CUVET teaching set. Extends a standard Norberg-positioning VD caudally to capture both femorotibial joints — femoral condyles, tibial plateaus, and fabellae visible on both sides. Useful for stifle symmetry screening and as a one-image hindlimb reference.
