Abstract

Eighteen female Arabian horses, of 3-5 years old were examined ultrasonographically on the abdomen without clipping the hair, but with soaking hair with isopropyl alcohol to improve contact. The stomach was scanned from the left side between the 8th or 9th - 12th or 13th inter-costal spaces (ICS). The duodenum was examined from the right flank at the 16th and 17th ICS immediately ventral to the kidney. Jejunum is not usually imaginable. The cecum was imaged along the body wall in the dorsal and caudal portions of the right abdomen. Large colon was normally visible throughout the majority of the abdomen along both body wall and the ventral abdomen. The small colon was scanned dorsal to the left ventral colon (LVC). The liver was scanned ventral to the margins of the lung along the right side of the abdomen from 6th-15th ICS and along the left side of the cranial ventral abdomen from 6th-9th ICS. The spleen was scanned along the left side of the abdomen adjacent to the body wall from the 8th or 9th ICS to the 17th ICS. The right kidney was scanned from the 14th -17th ICS. The left kidney was scanned in the 17th ICS and para-lumbar fossa. The urinary bladder was imaged trans-rectally.
