Correlation of minimally invasive imaging techniques to assess intestinal mucosal perfusion with established markers of chronic inflammatory enteropathy in dogs

Mazdak Salavati et al.

Summary: CEUS and SPIES techniques could be used to assess intestinal perfusion in dogs with CIE, with SPIES endoscopy showing promise for evaluating small intestinal inflammation and CEUS for assessing colonic perfusion and inflammation. Both techniques require further investigation for their clinical utility.

B-Mode and Contrast Enhanced Ultrasonography Features of Gastric Inflammatory and Neoplastic Diseases in Dogs

Francesco Simeoni et al.

Summary: Canine gastric disorders are common in veterinary practice, with neoplasms requiring rapid identification. Standard ultrasound is the preferred imaging modality for assessing gastric wall conditions. This study aimed to describe specific ultrasound features of normal, inflammatory, and neoplastic gastric diseases in dogs, showing potential for distinguishing gastritis from gastric neoplasms.

Impact of region-of-interest size and location on quantitative contrast-enhanced ultrasound of canine splenic perfusion

Simona Morabito et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the impact of the size and location of ROIs in a dog's spleen on perfusion variables determined using sulphur hexafluoride contrast-enhanced ultrasounds, finding that larger ROIs had lower variation coefficients and distal ROIs showed decreased perfusion-related parameters.

Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography in dogs with inflammatory bowel disease

Nikolina Linta et al.

Summary: CEUS can differentiate between dogs with IBD and healthy dogs by evaluating time-intensity curves, but it is not useful for monitoring therapeutic response. Qualitative assessment showed no significant differences between healthy and affected dogs, or between dogs before and after treatment.

The Echogenic Liver Steatosis and Beyond

Markus Wu et al.

Summary: While hepatic steatosis is the most common cause of increased liver echogenicity, other liver and systemic diseases such as cirrhosis, viral hepatitis, and hemochromatosis can also lead to echogenic liver. It is important to differentiate these conditions in ultrasound examinations.
