Therefore, invasive tissue sampling procedures remain the standard method for diagnosing diseases in these organs. The purpose of our study was to assess the feasibility of ultrasound elastography as a technique for improving noninvasive characterization of the feline liver, spleen, and kidneys. Elastography was performed on 10 unsedated, clinically healthy cats. Numeric (strain) values (0 = softest to 255 = firmest) assigned to color pixels within regions of interest resulted in median scores (interquartile ranges) of body wall, 207.50 (189.75\u2013224.00); liver, 119.00 (105.00\u2013138.25); spleen, 127.50 (121\u201300\u2013142.00); right renal cortex, 83.50 (64.00\u2013130.00); right renal near field, 125.50 (110.75\u2013139.75); left renal cortex, 77.50 (52.00\u2013116.25); and left renal near field, 126.00 (114.00\u2013145.25). Strain values were not different between organs. Body wall median was the only significantly different value (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt; 0.05). Strain ratio values of body wall:organ were as follows: liver, 1.76 (1.38\u20132.00); spleen, 1.68 (1.47\u20131.83); right renal cortex, 2.31 (1.61\u20133.15); right renal near field, 1.62 (1.41\u20132.01); left renal cortex, 2.66 (1.45\u20134.13); and left renal near field, 1.51 (1.29\u20131.89). Subjectively, hepatic and splenic parenchymal tissues were homogeneous in compressibility and similar in elasticity to one another. Renal cortical tissue was softer compared to medullary tissue. Findings indicated that ultrasound elastography is a feasible technique for objectively and subjectively characterizing the feline liver, spleen, and kidneys. Further research is needed in cats with confirmed diseases of these organs, to compare the diagnostic sensitivity of ultrasound elastography vs. B\u2010mode ultrasonography.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/vru.12130","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,12,20]],"date-time":"2013-12-20T11:12:40Z","timestamp":1387537960000},"page":"428-434","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["ULTRASOUND ELASTOGRAPHY OF THE LIVER, SPLEEN, AND KIDNEYS IN CLINICALLY NORMAL CATS"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"55","author":[{"given":"Jennifer","family":"White","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences Washington State University Pullman WA 99614"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"John","family":"Gay","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences Washington State University Pullman WA 99614"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Raelynn","family":"Farnsworth","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences Washington State University Pullman WA 99614"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Matt","family":"Mickas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences Washington State University Pullman WA 99614"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"KwangGi","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biomedical Engineering Branch Division of Convergence Technology National Cancer Center Gyeonggi\u2010do Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"John","family":"Mattoon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences Washington State University Pullman WA 99614"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,12,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1148\/rg.236035163"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/016173469101300201"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1258\/ult.2011.011043"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.acra.2008.08.003"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7863\/jum.2012.31.5.773"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00256-010-0918-0"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1148\/radiol.2452061805"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7863\/jum.2007.26.6.807"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.crad.2010.06.008"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7863\/jum.2011.30.3.313"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.acra.2006.08.012"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/uog.2823"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_14_1","first-page":"2384","article-title":"Value of ultrasound elastography in detecting small breast tumors","volume":"124","author":"Fu L","year":"2011","journal-title":"Chin Med J"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.acra.2009.12.006"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2214\/AJR.06.0322"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_17_1","volume-title":"Radiology","author":"Leung VY","year":"2013"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/tri.12073"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"412","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.1993.203.03.413","article-title":"Complications after ultrasound\u2010guided biopsy of abdominal structures in dogs and cats: 246 cases (1984\u20131991)","volume":"203","author":"L\u00e9veill\u00e9 R","year":"1993","journal-title":"J Am Vet Med Assoc"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1740-8261.1985.tb01388.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1740-8261.2010.01778.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_22_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2214\/AJR.09.3140"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_23_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/02841850903273966"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_24_1","volume-title":"Small animal diagnostic ultrasound","author":"Nyland TG","year":"2002"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_25_1","volume-title":"Miller's anatomy of the dog","author":"Evans HE","year":"1993"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_26_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.2004.224.75"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_27_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/jfms.1999.0045"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_28_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.230.5.690"}],"container-title":["Veterinary Radiology &amp;
