I've seen a few small or end stage kidneys in cats in my time, but I think this one takes the cake. This is an ultrasound clip of a kidney that measures 1.4cm in length and 0.7cm in width. 🤯

As promised, here are the radiographic and CT images from the same patient with gas noted in the hepatic parenchyma on ultrasound. Radiography confirmed that the echogenicities were due to gas (and there was also free gas in the peritoneal cavity), and a CT was performed for surgical planning. The arrowheads indicate the location of the free gas in the liver and also in the peritoneal cavity on the radiographic image.

Hyperechoic speckles in the liver parenchyma are highly suggestive of gas within the parenchyma which is concerning for hepatic abscessation. Mineralisation can also create hyperechoic specks - if in doubt, take an abdominal radiograph (or CT!). Radiographs and CT to follow in further posts.

Not all tubes in the liver are blood vessels! These are distended (and thickened) intrahepatic bile ducts in an 8yr Russian Blue with suspected biliary tract inflammation and obstruction. Colour flow Doppler US can be used to distinguish between distended intrahepatic bile ducts and vessels.
These look a bit like worms 🤢

When the portal angiogram goes so smoothly it looks like a work of art 😉....Image is a CT MIP (maximum intensity projection) of the branching portal vasculature of a normal dog.

On occasion we have to assess post operative patients using ultrasound. When we are assessing an intestinal resection post-op we usually look for: an intact surgical site, movement of ingesta through the lumen at the site, intestinal distension and motility, surrounding free fluid or abscess, or generalised/focal peritonitis (to indicate leakage). Note in this intact resection and anastomosis jejunal site, there is normal movement of fluid through the site and no evidence of leakage of contents.

This is a case of tamponade secondary to a pericardial effusion. Note the flailing right atrial wall which is paradoxically moving inwards instead of outwards during atrial diastole and the poor filling of the right ventricle. This was confirmed by assessing the abdomen, which showed hepatic venous distension and ascites.

This 3 yr old female entire dog is lethargic, pyrexic and vomiting. What could these structures seen on ultrasound be? And how can we differentiate between the possibilities? Discussion soon.

Following on from the what’s in a neck post....unfortunately this is something we see too often, penetrating stick injury! This one was rather spectacular, the stick had penetrated the oral cavity and lodged itself on the right side of the trachea and oesophagus. This was removed at surgery.
