Dr. Audrey Yank used CoreVu on her Piloter ultrasound system to complete an abdominal scan.
The Study:
- Images on obese animals are incredibly difficult
- Slight adjustments to the system and suggesting a different transducer approach was the key
Results of Study
- The liver is significantly heterogenous and has signification decreased vascular conspicuity.
- The liver lobe margins are irregular and blunted. The overall size is subjectively enlarged.
- Incidental cysts are present.
- A large target lesion approximating 5 cm in diameter is identified at the cranial ventral margin. The center of this lesion is hyperechoic.
- Acoustic shadows are forming.
