Early assessment of chronic kidney dysfunction using contrast-enhanced ultrasound in dogs with primary kidney disease and spontaneous Cushing syndrome
Chronic kidney disease, a progressive disorder leading to an irreversible loss of kidney function, is common in older dogs. Early diagnosis is of great importance in improving quality of life. The purpose is to evaluate noninvasive contrast-enhanced ultrasound to detect early perfusion changes in dogs with primary kidney disease and in dogs with spontaneous Cushing’s syndrome.
