Radiographic and ultrasonographic findings of the spleen and abdominal lymph nodes in healthy domestic ferrets 2017-04-17 .txt text/plain 6084 351 53 The goal of this prospective, cross-sectional study was to describe the characteristics of the spleen and abdominal lymph nodes on radiographs and with ultrasound in a sample of clientowned, clinically healthy domestic ferrets ( Mustela putorius furo ). For the calculation of sample sizes, the standard deviations of previously reported measurements of abdominal viscera in clinically healthy ferrets were compared, including gross renal measurements (1·25, 1·5 mm), ultrasonographic adrenal thickness (0·5, 0·6 mm) and ultrasonographic jejunal lymph node thickness (1·39, 2.0 mm) (O ' Brien et al . The results presented in this study provide the most comprehensive evaluation of the spleen and abdominal lymph nodes with radiographs and ultrasound in clinically healthy ferrets to date. Based on the results of this study, the jejunal, pancreaticoduodenal, hepatic and caudal mesenteric lymph nodes can be routinely detected with ultrasound in most ferrets. ./cache/cord-284186-zf1w8ksm.txt ./txt/cord-284186-zf1w8ksm.txt
