Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrasonographic findings of feline cholangitis.
TL;DR: Most cats with cholangitis had sonographically normal liver size, echogenicity, and normal biliary systems and no statistically significant changes were noted to distinguish lymphocytic and neutrophilic forms of cholANGitis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and MR cholangiopancreatography findings in cats with cholangitis and pancreatitis.
TL;DR: The advantages of MRI/MRCP over sonography of these cats included the striking pancreatic signal changes associated with pancreatitis and the ability to comprehensibly assess and measure the pancreas and hepatobiliary structures without operator dependence or interference from bowel gas.
Journal Article
Gallbladder sludge on ultrasound is predictive of increased liver enzymes and total bilirubin in cats
TL;DR: GBS is an uncommon ultrasonographic finding in cats that is predictive of increased liver enzymes and TB and more studies are needed to establish potential links between GBS and hepatobiliary disease in cats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sonographic assessment of gallbladder volume in normal cats
TL;DR: Gallbladder volume was quantified in 30 clinically healthy, fasted, cats, using an ellipsoid formula to assist clinicians when evaluating cats with hepatobiliary disease or suspected extrahepatic biliary obstruction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hepatic and pancreaticobiliary MRI and mr cholangiopancreatography with and without secretin stimulation in normal cats.
TL;DR: The MR cholangiopancreatography protocol with secretin stimulation was feasible and yielded high-contrast maps of the biliary ductal anatomy but the pancreactic duct was seen inconsistently, and the FAME series most consistently provided visualization of biliary and postsecretin pancreatic ducts combined with very good depiction of the liver and pancreas.

Per Rectal Portal Scintigraphy Using 99mTechnetium Pertechnetate to Diagnose Portosystemic Shunts in Dogs and Cats
TL;DR: Per rectal portal scintigraphy using 99mTechnetium pertechnetate (99mTcO4-) was used to diagnose portosystemic shunts (PSS) before surgical confirmation in seven dogs and two cats and determined shunt fractions, representing the percent of portal blood that bypasses the liver.
