Title: Ultrasonographic diagnosis of aorto-iliac thrombosis. Author: Tithof PK, Rebhun WC, Dietze AE. Journal: Cornell Vet; 1985 Oct; 75(4):540-4. PubMed ID: 3902356. Abstract: A linear array 5 mHz ultrasonic scanner was used to diagnose aorto-iliac thrombosis in a 3 year old Standardbred gelding. There are no reports in the literature of utilization of ultrasonography for visualization of an aortic thrombus. The technique is fairly non-invasive, requiring only a rectal examination with a linear array probe. Arteriography is the only other method described for actual visualization of a thrombus. This procedure is technically difficult and highly invasive.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
