CT – Veterinary Computed Tomography (Veterinary CT Scanning)

Long Bones Ryan M. Schultz and Erik R. Equine Foot Sarah Puchalski. Rabbits and Rodents Randi Drees. Avian Michaela Gumpenberger. Chelonians Michaela Gumpenberger. Low serum albumin 2. Measurement of bile acid concentrations revealed elevated levels of preprandial and postprandial bile acids Table 1. CTA was performed a day after the specialised biochemical test to identify the origin and termination of a shunt vessel. The patient was premedicated with glycopyrrolate Tabinul inj; Hana Pharm, Korea; 0. The patient was intubated and anaesthesia was maintained with isoflurane Ifran; Hana Pharm, Korea and oxygen.

The patient was imaged in dorsal recumbency and underwent a routine helical CT scan of the whole body from the level of the thoracic inlet to the coxofemoral joint using an Asteion 4 multi-detector CT device Toshiba, Japan , followed by an angiographic whole-body scan.

The scanning parameters were slice thickness of 1 mm, beam pitch of 1, mA, and KVp. Single-phase CTA with VRI was obtained, and involved acquiring a portal phase as the contrast medium reached the portal vein following a single injection. For imaging of the portal vein, helical scanning was begun 50 s after the start of contrast medium injection.

No bolus tracking technique was performed. VRI demonstrated that a portocaval shunt originated just cranial to a tributary of the gastroduodenal vein and drained into the caudal vena cava at the level of the epiploic foramen Fig. Nephroliths and cystoliths were identified by CT scan. A diagnosis of extrahepatic portocaval shunt with nephroliths and cystoliths was made. Surgical correction was performed the week following admission. Preoperative therapy included low-protein diet, lactulose Duphalac; Choongwae Pharm, Korea; 1. The patient was positioned in dorsal recumbency.

A ventral midline incision was made from the xiphoid process to the pubis.

Computed tomography: a beneficial diagnostic tool for the evaluation of the canine prostate?

Abdominal exploration was within normal limits except for the portocaval shunt. The mesoduodenum was retracted to the left to approach the epiploic foramen.

The Use of CT Scans During Surgery

The shunt, originating from the portal vein and draining into the caudal vena cava, was identified at the epiploic foramen Fig. Agreement between CTA imaging and surgical findings was found. The shunt was isolated by means of blunt dissection for placement of a cellophane band. An ethylene oxide-sterilised cellophane band formed by folding 1. No changes in heart rate, intestinal colour and motility and pancreatic color were identified.

Cystotomy was performed to remove cystoliths. The subcutaneous tissues and skin were closed using polyglycolic acid and nylon, respectively.

A low-protein diet, lactulose 1. Preprandial and postprandial bile acids levels were still elevated 2 months after surgery Table 1. The aforementioned CT procedures were repeated 10 weeks after surgery. A cellophane band was identified on both routine and CTA images. The Hounsfield units of the cellophane band was VRI revealed no evidence of portosystemic communication on the level of a cellophane band and caudal to the cellophane band Fig.

CTA demonstrated an increased portal vein diameter of 3. The preprandial bile acid level was close to the reference range and the postprandial bile acid level was within the reference range 3 months after surgery Table 1.

Anim Reprod Sci. As another limitation it has to be mentioned that due to the retrospective character of the present study older dogs were more often examined in the CT than younger ones. Especially in group 3 inhomogeneous prostate differences between the diagnostic imaging modalities were found.
