This study describes the size and characteristics of the thyroid gland on ultrasound (US) and CT examinations in the guinea pig (\n                    <jats:italic>Cavia porcellus<\/jats:italic>\n                    ) without evidence of thyroid pathology and examines the possible use of US as a routine examination for thyroid diseases. This prospective and anatomical study included 20 guinea pigs that underwent CT for dental pathologies and US for thyroid gland (TG) examination. Based on US and CT images, this study evaluated the thyroid lobe dimensions (length, height, and width) and shape. Echogenicity and homogeneity were assessed on US images, and attenuation values (HU) and homogeneity were evaluated on CT images. All animals underwent CT and US examinations under anesthesia. Thyroid lobes appeared more frequently as fusiform on CT (65%) and oval on US scans (67.5%). The attenuation values on CT scans were homogeneous. On the US scans, the TG was more frequently hypoechoic. No statistically significant differences were found between the size of the right and left thyroid lobes, both with CT and US. A statistically significant difference was found between the length values on CT and US. The US and CT thyroid gland dimensions, shape, and appearance were described. Both CT and US are useful techniques for evaluating the TG in guinea pigs.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/vru.13455","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,17]],"date-time":"2024-10-17T07:09:02Z","timestamp":1729148942000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Tomographic and ultrasound evaluation of the thyroid gland in pet guinea pigs"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"66","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7896-2053","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tina","family":"Pelligra","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Sciences Veterinary Teaching Hospital Mario Modenato University of Pisa  Pisa Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5313-0621","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Caterina","family":"Puccinelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Sciences Veterinary Teaching Hospital Mario Modenato University of Pisa  Pisa Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Daniele","family":"Petrini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Sciences Veterinary Teaching Hospital Mario Modenato University of Pisa  Pisa Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0065-2952","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mirko","family":"Mattolini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Sciences Veterinary Teaching Hospital Mario Modenato University of Pisa  Pisa Italy"},{"name":"Clinica Veterinaria dell'Orologio  Bologna Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8211-9248","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Simonetta","family":"Citi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Sciences Veterinary Teaching Hospital Mario Modenato University of Pisa  Pisa Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cvex.2020.01.007"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1210\/endo\u2010118\u20102\u2010533"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.jepm.2011.11.004"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1939\u2010165X.2009.00159.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.242.3.346"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_7_1","first-page":"1070","article-title":"Bestimmung des Referenzbereichs fur mittels Enzymimmunas\u2010 say (EIA) ermittelte Thyroxin (T4) Werte im Plasma von Meerschweinchen.
