Abstract

U svakodnevnom radu u maloj praksi vrlo često se susrećemo sa simptomi vezanim uz
primarnu patologiju probavnog sustava pasa i mačaka. Sami probavni simptomi često su
nedovoljno specifični. Iz tog razloga, u dijagnostici, osim kliničkog pregleda i laboratorijskih
pretraga, ultrazvučna i rendgenska pretraga ovdje su od velike koristi. Jedna od značajnih
prednosti u komparaciji sa drugim slikovnim dijagnostičkim metodama je neinvazivnost
ultrazvuka, a samim time i mogućnost čestog ponavljanja pretrage. U mnogim stanjima gdje je
potrebno procijeniti funkcionalno stanje probavne cijevi i dobiti detaljniji uvid u sliku
anatomskih detalja ultrazvučni prikaz je prva metoda izbora. Neovisno o nekim poteškoćama
pri izvođenju dijagnostičkog ultrazvuka kod većine pacijenata možemo vizualizirati dilatacije,
strana tijela, opstrukcije, difuznu i lokaliziranu promjenu slojevitosti, funkcionalne poremećaje,
intususcepcije, inflamatorne ili neoplastične promjene. Ultrazvučna slika sličnih stanja vrlo
često se razlikuje ovisno o lokalizaciji unutar želučanocrijevnog sustava. U svakom slučaju, u
modernoj veterinarskoj medicini naglašava se prednost upotrebe i superiornost u stupnju
otkrivanja promjena ultrazvučne dijagnostike nad nekim široko raširenim radiološkim
metodama.

Abstract (english)

In everyday work in small practice we very often encounter symptoms related to the
primary pathology of the digestive system of dogs and cats. Digestive symptoms themselves
are often nonspecific. For this reason, during the diagnostics, in addition to clinical examination
and laboratory tests, ultrasound and X-ray examination are of great use here. One of the
significant advantages in comparison with other diagnostic imaging methods is the noninvasiveness of ultrasound, and thus the possibility of frequent repetition of the examination.
In many conditions where it is necessary to assess the functional state of the digestive tract and
get a more detailed insight into the picture of anatomical details, ultrasound is the first method
of choice. Regardless of some difficulties in performing diagnostic ultrasound in most patients
we can visualize dilatations, foreign bodies, obstructions, diffuse and localized structural
changes, functional disturbances, intussusception, inflammatory or neoplastic changes.
Ultrasound findings of similar conditions very often differs depending on the localization within
the gastrointestinal system. In any case, modern veterinary medicine emphasizes the advantage
of use and superiority in the degree of detection of changes in ultrasound diagnostics over some
widespread radiological methods.
