Ultrasonographic measurement of the pancreas and pancreatic duct in clinically normal dogs

Abstract: Ultrasonographic reference values for the pancreas and pancreatic duct of dogs were determined. Results of this study indicated that the pancreatic duct was visible, especially in the right lobe of the pancreas. These values may be useful for the assessment of pancreatic abnormalities, such as chronic pancreatitis and exocrine pancreatic insufficiency.

“…The still images and video clips were assessed for evidence of pancreatic enlargement, echogenicity, and echotexture. Pancreatic enlargement was determined via comparison with previously published reference intervals, whereas pancreatic echotexture was a subjective measure as utilized in previous literature . The echogenicity of the pancreas was assessed via comparison with internal landmarks such as the surrounding mesentery, kidneys, spleen, and liver.…”

“…The UPASS ranges from 0 to 7, and the higher the UPASS the greater the ultrasonographic evidence of pancreatitis. Pancreatic enlargement was determined by comparison with the previously published reference intervals . Pancreatic echotexture was subjectively assessed, and pancreatic echogenicity was determined by comparison to internal markers such as the kidney, liver, and spleen,…”
