Animal welfare
GUELPH. - The University -of
Guelphhas become the first Cana- -
dian university offering veterinary'.-
and
eterinary''and animal science programsto
have the clinical and research capac-
ity. for magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI), a non-surgical, radiation -free
technology tliat' offers pew levels of
diagnostic information.
The S1.3 million' MRI• facility
under the direction of Prof. Edward
Janzen, is located in the department
or biomedical sciences in the Onta-
rio Veterinary College.
Like X-rays or untrasound, MRI
offers researchers.an opportunity to
look inside the body without using
surgery. But most similarities stop -
there. .
Whereas X-rays involve low-level
radiation and are essentially snap-
shots of dense matter such as bone,
MRI "pictures" are obtained
through the use of harmless mag-
netic field produced by the MRI
unit. This alignment can be trans-
lated into unprecedented pictures of
areas like the brain, heart or the
lungs -- wherever there's soft tissue
'or fat, which has high concentra-
tions of hydrogens.
Like MRI, ultrasound also offers
more than pictures of bone, but ul-
trasound technology has not ad-
vanced to the point where it can
provide the kind of detail obvious
in MRI images. By using a sensor
that can be pinpointed anywhere
along the axis of an animal placed
inside a magnetic chamber, magnet-
ic resonance imaging can isolate
and depict -extremely thin "slices" of
the eject. Tissue and fat appear
as distinctly different bright areas in
the MRI image.
Fight abuse
TORONTO - Ontario Minister of
Tourism and Recreation Hugh P.
O'Neil has reaffirmed the province's
resolve to fight substance abuse in
competitive sport, and pointed to
progress in establishing a united
front against the problem.
Optimistic following a national
conference of sport and recreation
ministers November 1-3 in Winni-
peg, Mr. O'Neil said:
A solid base of understanding
has been achieved with other prov-
inces and the federal government to
attack sport -related substance abuse.
"Discussions with other ministers
were productive," he said. "It was
gratifying for me to learn in Winni-
peg that other provinces, the territo-
ries and the Neral government
share our serio s commitment to a
permanent end to any form of per-
formance-enhancing'substances in
athletics." '
The federal and provincial govern-
ments have pledged to develop a
joint action plan to deal with sub-
stance -abuse in sport,.with empha-
sis on drug education programs.
That national campaign will com-
plement initiatives already undertak-
en in Ontario.
Last month, the Ontario Ministry
of Tourism and Recreation an- 6
nounccd a 51.76 -million program
aimed at improving sport and recre-
ation safety. At the same time a
new Advisory Committee on Sport,
Fitness and Recreation Safetywas
created.
While sports -related injuries re-
main a major concern to' the Gov-
ernment of Ontario, the issue of
substance abuse in sport will not be
ignored by the saac+gnat�r:,,�
mittee,' Mr. O'Neil said. "Th?
committee has, in fact, been specif-
ically directed to examine and advise
my Ministry on all aspects of
sports safety." .
