Perinephric cysts are fluid-filled sacs that develop around the kidneys, often incidental findings
🔹 Anechoic fluid-filled structures surrounding the kidney
🔹 Well-defined, thin-walled, and non-vascular on Doppler
🔹 May cause kidney displacement or compression if large #vetultrasound #vetimaging
Radiographs of cats with pulmonary tuberculosis typically reveal diffuse or nodular lung patterns, often resembling bronchopneumonia. Lesions may appear as interstitial or alveolar infiltrates.
Enlarged tracheobronchial lymph nodes and pleural effusion can also be present.

The muscularis layer of the gastrointestinal tract appears as a hypoechoic (dark) layer between the more echogenic submucosa and serosa.
Thickening of this layer can indicate inflammatory bowel disease, lymphoma, or other infiltrative diseases, making its assessment important.

Answer: the most common fidning in dogs with SRMA is paravertebral musculature changes
The most common MRI findings were paravertebral muscle changes (30/53; 56.6%), meningeal contrast enhancement (13/41; 31.7%) and spinal cord parenchymal T2-W hyperintensity (15/53; 28.3%).

The central tarsal bone is located within the middle row of tarsal bones.
This bone plays a crucial role in weight-bearing and stability during locomotion, and its integrity is often evaluated for fractures, luxations, or degenerative changes in cases of trauma or disease

Acanthomatous ameloblastoma
The radiographs show bony infiltration, extensive destruction of bone, and displacemente of teeth.
It occurs most commonly in the rostral mandible but interestingly in this case was in the maxilla. #vetimaging #vetradiology #vetspecialist #xvet #acanthomatousameloblastoma
