[Objectives]This study was conducted to explore the application value of X ray in the diagnosis of poultry fatty liver.[Methods]Serum biochemical tests were performed on laying hens with suspected fatty liver.The X-ray liver images of the left lateral position were observed.And the liver traits were observed by anatomy.[Results]The increase in liver space occupying lesion observed by X-ray photography was consistent with the increase in liver volume observed by anatomy.The biochemical test showed slight liver function abnormalities.[Conclusions]X-ray examination can be used for the auxiliary diagnosis of poultry fatty liver.
