Test 3. 4 Flashcards
FB on US will cause
dark acoustic shadow
where is the fundus and pyloric antrum with 180 GDV
they flip
- fundus now on right ventral side
- pyloric antrum on left dorsal
LL of GDV
fundus is gas filled on right side and ventral
RL of GDV
pyloric antrum is gas filled, left sided and dorsal
compartmentalization visible
what to look for on US of gastric neoplasia
thickened walls
loss of normal layers
mass or diffuse infiltrate
mass is hypoechoic (darker)
gastritis
* thickened wall
* normal layering
* fluid accumulation
* prominent rugal folds
* fat outside can be brighter than normal
mechanical vs functional ileus
mechanical: blockage prevents movement
functional: no blockage, wall is not working
mechanical ileus can be caused by
obstruction
* FB
* cancer
* intussusception
* adhesion
can be complete or incomplete, hard to see if partial, recent or close to stomach
functional ileus is caused by
decreased contractility
* electrolyte imbalance
* irritation (enteritis, peritonitis)
* infarct
mechanical ileus- obstruction causes dilatation upstream and past obstruction is normal or empty
- blue: peristaltic contraction- symmetrical
ileo colic intussusception
gravel sign
intestinal cancer- things get stuck in front of tumor
intestinal neoplasia
* diffuse thickening
* muscularis layer very thick
* small cell lymphoma
IBD looks the same
