Ultrasonography of the urinary and genital system of the dog and cat.

Ultrasonographic examination of the urinary tract is commonplace in veterinary medicine. Indications to perform an ultrasonographic examination of the urinary tract include: serum biochemistry findings, physical findings, species or age-related indications (e.g. breeds with familial renal disease, suspicion of congenital abnormalities in young animals) and radiographic findings that include abnormal appearing kidneys and/ or urinary bladder.
