However, reference data are not available for most of the commonly kept species. The objective of this prospective anatomical analytical study was to sonographically examine the urogenital tract of four of the most commonly kept lizard species and compare their kidneys, testes, and ovaries. A total of 41 lizards, 14 bearded dragons (<jats:italic>Pogona vitticeps<\/jats:italic>), 15 leopard geckos (<jats:italic>Eublepharis macularius<\/jats:italic>), seven veiled chameleons (<jats:italic>Chamaeleo calyptratus)<\/jats:italic>, and five panther chameleons <jats:italic>(Furcifer pardalis<\/jats:italic>) were included. An 8\u201318\u00a0MHz field hockey stick transducer and a 6\u201315\u00a0MHz linear transducer were used. Sagittal and transverse images of the organs were recorded. The kidneys could be visualized and assessed in full length in all lizards, the testes in 18 of 19, and the ovaries in 13 of 22 lizards. The results of the current study could serve as reference values for future studies on the species mentioned.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/vru.70075","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,16]],"date-time":"2025-08-16T16:39:31Z","timestamp":1755362371000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Comparative Sonographic Studies of the Urogenital Tract in Lizards"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"66","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-9073-8998","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nils B.","family":"Kl\u00fctzow","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinic for Birds and Reptiles, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine University of Leipzig  Leipzig Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6001-9542","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Volker","family":"Schmidt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinic for Birds and Reptiles, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine University of Leipzig  Leipzig Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1638\/2023-0023"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cvex.2005.10.008"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/vr.101450"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cvex.2016.11.003"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/B0-72-169327-X\/50033-X"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/saep.2001.24671"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/vru.12599"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.246.8.868"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/vru.12820"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_11_1","unstructured":"S.Wachsmann Ultraschalluntersuchungen bei Bartagamen (Pogona vitticeps) unter Ber\u00fccksichtigung klinischer r\u00f6ntgenologischer und labordiagnostischer Parameter Dissertation: Verlag der Deutschen Veterin\u00e4rmedizinischen Gesellschaft(2010).
