Title: Use of contrast ultrasonography in the diagnosis of metastatic feline visceral haemangiosarcoma. Author: Webster N, Holloway A. Journal: J Feline Med Surg; 2008 Aug; 10(4):388-94. PubMed ID: 18440849. Abstract: A 12-year-old cat was presented for investigation of weight loss and inappetence. Radiography and conventional grey-scale ultrasonography showed a large mid-body splenic mass. Contrast enhanced ultrasonography of the liver demonstrated a hypoechoic left lateral lobe nodular mass during the peak and late portal-phases of liver enhancement. Histopathology of the splenic mass and hepatic nodular mass confirmed haemangiosarcoma. The use of ultrasound microbubble contrast media in the diagnosis of hepatic metastasis in the cat has not been previously reported in the cat.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
