Gastrointestinal ultrasonography of the dog: a review of 265 cases (1996-1998)
2000
Manczur, F. | Voros, K.
265 dogs with gastrointestinal disorders were examined using ultrasonography. Pathological changes included gastrointestinal wall thickening, changes in peristalsis and dilation of the lumen. Localized thickening of gastriontestinal wall with disruption of its structure was caused by both neoplastic diseases and inflammatory disorders. However, diffuse thickening with retained wall structure was generally associated with inflammatory diseases. pancreatitis was most often associated with hyperechoic mesentery and hypoechoic pancreas mass, but similar alterations were encountered in some cases of gastric or duodenal ulceration. It is concluded that ultrasonography is a valuable technique for diagnosing gastrointestinal disorders of dogs.
