Ultrasonographic Evaluation of Gastrointestinal Diseases in Small Animals

Abstract: Sonographic findings of 18 dogs and four cats with gastrointestinal (GI) diseases were reviewed. Wall thickness, wall layer identification, wall symmetry, extension of the lesion, nature of the GI contents, motility, and regional and/or systemic involvement were recorded for each animal. Ultrasonographic appearance of gastrointestinal neoplasms, gastrointestinal obstruction, ileus, intussusception, inflammatory GI diseases, and congenital disorders are discussed.

“…In veterinary clinical medicine, ultrasonographic studies of canine stomach were mainly on the normal and abnormal morphology rather than the functional analysis [1,3,20,21]. But recent technical developments enable one to evaluate gastroduodenal motility by using ultrasonography, which is simple and noninvasive.…”

“…Houve aumento médio na espessura da parede das alças intestinais na Fase 2, isto é, nos animais tratados com probiótico, a camada intestinal era mais espessa se comparada à dos animais do grupo-controle. Penninck et al (1990) relataram como achado ultrassonográfico sugestivo de inflamação intestinal a preservação da estratificação das camadas parietais, ou seja, as camadas apresentam-se bem diferenciadas, com nítido predomínio da visibilização da camada submucosa. No presente experimento, embora tenha sido observado espessamento, não foi visibilizada essa característica ultrassonográfica relacionada à inflamação.…”

“…Outro fator importante para embasar tal hipótese é a não visibilização de linfonodomegalia mesentérica e o aumento de sua ecogenicidade, diferentemente dos achados citados na literatura em doenças inflamatórias (Penninck et al, 1990 Época: primeira (1) e última (2) época (terceiro dia) de realização do exame ultrassonográfico. Probiótico 1: Bifidobacterium; probiótico 2: Lactobacillus.…”

“…The ultrasonography used for recognizing foreign bodies and masses, identification of GI perforation and used to detect drug-induced gastric mucosal changes and sometimes helpful to suggestion for the need of surgery (Boysen et al, 2003). Ultrasonography of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) is a valuable diagnostic imaging technique in animals (Penninck et al, 1990). The complete abdominal ultrasonographic evaluation by 5, 7.5 and/or 10 MHz transducers has been performed in all age dogs, gastric lesions are considered by gastric wall thickening, wall layering and contents of gastric lumen.…”
