When you pet isn’t feeling well, imaging helps us understand what’s happening on the inside — fast. Here’s how these two tools work together…

Hi! I’m Dayna — The person behind the probe and Owner of Precious Paws Mobile Veterinary Ultrasound 🐾✨
As a veterinary sonographer, I travel to veterinary clinics/hospitals around Southwest Ontario to help pets get answers faster, right where they are.

Ultrasound gives veterinarians a clear view of what’s happening inside — without stress or radiation — so we can help pets feel better sooner 💙

I’m excited to share stories from the road, behind-the-scenes moments, and helpful tips for pet parents and clinic teams 💕🐾

11 yo FS Yorkshire Terrier presented with urinary issues - frequency and straining.

Findings:

UROGENITAL: There is a multilobulated mildly heterogenous and broad-based mass seen associated with the neck and urinary bladder, and expected location of the trigone. This mass measures approximately 8.1 mm additional abnormalities of the urinary bladder are not identified.
ADRENALS: The caudal pole of the left adrenal gland measures 8.1 mm in thickness. The right adrenal gland measures 7.3 mm in thickness at the caudal pole.

CONCLUSIONS:
1. Mass lesion within the urinary bladder at the level of the trigone. This is highly concerning for neoplasia such as urothelial/transitional cell carcinoma. BRAF testing could be performed for screening purposes, however biopsy would be needed for definitive diagnosis.
2. Bilateral adrenomegaly. Pituitary dependent Cushing’s syndrome is likely. If not already performed, a low-dose dexamethasone suppression test would be suggested.

Supervisor on duty this evening while writing up reports…

One year old, spayed female GSHP presented with possibly having eaten something from the garbage 2 days prior.
Some lethargy, inappetence and unproductive retching, but did vomit some blood tinged bile.

FINDINGS:

GASTROINTESTINAL: There is a long linear echogenic and distally shadowing focus seen extending from the gastric wall into the peritoneal space that measures approximately 10.5 cm in length. The stomach contains a moderate amount of echogenic ingesta/fluid. The small bowel is normal in appearance and contents without evidence of segmental dilation.

CONCLUSIONS:
Gastric foreign object (possibly a wood skewer/kebab or similar object) with evidence of perforation of the gastric wall and extension into the peritoneal space resulting in septic peritonitis. Exploratory surgery and removal is indicated.

Foreign body: A kebab skewer! (See last image).
Happy to report she was back to normal the day after surgery.

15 month old MN, feline (Domestic Longhair) presenting with reduced appetite and vomiting.

Findings:
- The stomach is distended with anechoic fluid. Stomach wall is unremarkable.
- The duodenum is distended with anechoic fluid. There is altered wall layering noted in the duodenum, though the duodenum is normal in size measuring approximately 0.25 cm in thickness.
- Multiple jejunal segments are also distended with anechoic fluid though normal in size. In the mid jejunum, there is a circular anechoic structure that has a hyperechoic rim noted in one of the jejunal segments causing significant luminal expansion.

Conclusions:
Small intestinal obstructive foreign body. Surgical exploration could be considered at this time.

Foreign body: A little, yellow, spiky toy ball (see last picture!)

7.5 yo, MN, chihuahua presented with a painful, tense caudal abdomen; sticking bum up in air, unable to get comfortable, not eating. Radiographs were done – showed enlarged prostate with internal calcifications.

Ultrasound Findings:
UROGENITAL: The urinary bladder wall has a normal thickness. The urinary bladder contains a small volume of echogenic sediment. A minuscule 2 mm calculus is also present within the urinary bladder. The prostate is mildly to moderately enlarged and heterogenous with multiple pinpoint calcifications.

Conclusions:
1. Enlarged mineralized prostate. This is most consistent with neoplasia such as adenocarcinoma. BRAF testing could be considered for screening purposes prior to pursuing a biopsy.
2. Sediment within the urinary bladder as well as a minuscule cystic calculus. This could represent a small volume of hemorrhage, crystals, casts, or proteinaceous debris.
3. Otherwise unremarkable abdomen, without evidence of metastatic disease.

BRAF testing was conducted and the results were positive for transitional cell carcinoma.

Cat | Domestic Short Hair (DSH) | 14 years and 1 day | Male (Neutered)

Weight loss, hungry, T4/T4ED normal Elevated WBC (neutrophils)

HEPATOBILIARY: Moderately sized, approximately 1.89 cm cystic masslike lesion within the right division of the liver.
Multiple other cystic lesion is seen within the right liver.

GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT: Colon contains normally formed f***s which creates a distal shadow. There is moderate muscularis thickening of the small bowel. Mesentery is slightly hyperechoic. There is a distended region within the small bowel which measures approximately 3.29 cm in width and this appears to be within the lumen. No hard shadowing is seen there is Doppler signal on this structure in one of the images. Another region, the material
within the lumen does appear to distally shadow.

**see cine clips in comments

Conclusions:
1. Moderate diffuse thickening of the muscularis layer of the small bowel. Differentials include neoplasia (e.g., lymphoma) and less likely benign etiology (inflammatory bowel disease).
2. Within a loop of small bowel, there is material which creates a hard distal shadow adjacent to or nearby and intraluminal masslike lesion which has Doppler signal. A partial mechanical obstruction secondary to infiltrative disease, possibly associated with #1, is suspected.
3. The cystic masslike lesions within the liver are suggestive of benign etiology (e.g., biliary cystadenoma on the right and simple cysts on the left side) and less likely malignancy (biliary cystadenocarcinoma).

4.5 yo MN Lab presented with blood in stool; Anorexia x 5 days, lethargic; weight loss of about 10 lbs in 5 days per owner

Ultrasound Findings:
There is dilation of sections of bowel containing echogenic and associated material with a plicated and corrugated appearance. There is thickening of the wall in this region. On the sagittal plane images there is a linear component to this material that is extensive. Other sections of small bowel are identified that are normal, without evidence of dilation. Multiple enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes are identified, measuring up to 1.3 cm in thickness. No free fluid is identified.

*video in comments

Conclusions:
1. Gastrointestinal foreign material with a linear component involving a large section of small bowel. Exploratory surgery and removal is indicated.
2. Reactive mesenteric lymphadenopathy secondary to #1.

After following up with the veterinarian, there was a linear foreign body – string which was caught in the stomach at the anterior end and extending into the small intestine.

The patient improved after surgery and is back to normal.
