 A variety of radiological findings are seen in the claw diseases of the cattle. The aim of this prelimi-nary study was to evaluate correlation between the radiological findings and biomechanical disturbance resulted from claw disease in the cattle with different claw disease. Material of the study consisted of 13 (n=13) Holstein breed cattle presented in different times due to claw disease, which had radiological findings on their radio-grams. Diagnosed claw diseases in clinical examination were limax, tendovaginitis, panaritium, deformed hoof, solea ulcer, heel erosion, white line disease and abaxial wall ulcer. Together with the local lesions of the cases, proliferations on the foot bone, osteophytes on the axial part of the II. and III. phalanx bone surface, radiolucent and radiopact areas around the foot joint, periosteal reactions and etc. were determined in plantaro-dorsal radio-grams. These some of the radiological aspects due to biomechanical problems originated from the claw diseases. As a conclusion, the claw diseases in cattle can affect the foot biomechanic, and associated different radiological findings stem from the biomechanical disturbance can be seen together with the specific radiological findings of the claw disease.
