Gastrointestinal ulceration in cats can be life threatening due to the risk of perforation and septic peritonitis. However, ultrasound findings associated with this condition their diagnostic sensitivities have not been described. Therefore, multicentre retrospective study aimed describe clinical features for gastrointestinal estimate sensitivity these cases. Hospital medical record databases were retrospectively searched feline cases 'ulcer' keywords. Cats included if they had undergone an...

Abstract Susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) is a high resolution, fully velocity‐compensated, three‐dimensional gradient echo (GE) MRI technique. In humans, SWI has been reported to be more sensitive than T2*‐weighted GE sequences in the identification of both intracranial hemorrhage and intra‐vascular deoxyhemoglobin. However, published clinical studies comparing dogs are currently lacking. The aim this retrospective, observational study was compare group with disease. Medical records...

Abstract Carcinomatosis and sarcomatosis describe the widespread dissemination of metastatic neoplastic cells throughout body. Studies describing their clinical imaging features in veterinary patients are limited. The objective this retrospective, multicenter, cross‐sectional study is to clinical, ultrasonographic, CT pleural peritoneal carcinomatosis dogs cats aid detection differentiation these lesions. Medical records ultrasonographic images were reviewed. Although a large degree overlap...

Abstract Background Abdominal ultrasound is frequently used to detect non‐perforated gastroduodenal ulcers in dogs. Studies assessing the diagnostic utility of abdominal for detection have yielded mixed results. No studies date investigated effects patient bodyweight, breed, sex, age, ulcer aetiology (neoplastic or inflammatory) location on accuracy ultrasound. Methods Retrospective, multicentre study evaluate ultrasonography diagnosis ulceration Results Sixty‐one dogs met inclusion...

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signal changes associated with ischemic stroke are typically described as T2w and FLAIR hyperintense, T1w isointense lesions. Intralesional hyperintensity is generally attributed to either a hemorrhagic stroke, or an transition, has void on gradient echo (GE) sequences. Cases of hyperintense in absence GE sequences have been sporadically demonstrated human patients, well dogs experimentally induced ischemia the middle cerebral artery. This multicenter...

Abstract Pseudoankylosis of the temporomandibular joint is infrequent in veterinary practice and mostly seen secondary to trauma. This case report describes surgical treatment a 1‐year old, male, entire lurcher that presented with progressive lateral deviation muzzle left decreased vertical mandibular range motion 6‐month duration. There was no history trauma, pain on palpation complete loss movement, even under sedation. Computed tomography investigation showed left‐sided pseudoankylosis...

Abstract A 7‐year‐old female neutered Tibetan Terrier presented with a 2‐week history of bilateral mandibular swelling, lethargy, reduced appetite, pyrexia and right sided exophthalmos. Computed tomography (CT) identified severe enlargement heterogenicity the salivary glands, which contained multiple cavitary lesions. Cytology both glands confirmed necrotising sialometaplasia. The treatment phenobarbitone, omeprazole paracetamol was initiated. patient made dramatic improvement upon 3‐week...
