Ultrasound, CT and FDG PET-CT of a Duodenal Granuloma in a Dog

Abstract: A 12-year-old spayed female Yorkshire Terrier with intermittent vomiting was diagnosed with regional granulomatous enteritis through histopathological examination.

“…Specific CT features of acute and chronic inflammatory conditions in dogs and cats such as enteritis and inflammatory bowel disease have not yet been reported. There is a single case report of the CT appearance of a granulomatous lesion associated with inflammatory bowel disease in a Yorkshire terrier . These granulomatous type lesions are commonly seen in Crohn's patients, which is a major type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in the human population.…”
