Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the range of resistive index(RI) of the cranial pancreaticoduodenal artery(cPDA) in the normal dog's and to assess the possibility of clinical application of RI for diagnosing a pancreatitis. Five patients with acute pancreatitis and 17 healthy adult beagle dogs were used. Duplex color Doppler ultrasonographic examination was performed by using a real-time scanner with 11-MHz linear-array transducer. The dogs were restrained in dorsal recumbency without the use of chemical agent. The mean RI of the normal pancreas(0.63$\pm$0.04) was significantly(t = 5.79, p = 0.001) different from acute pancreatitis dog(0.75$\pm$0.04). Duplex color Doppler ultrasonography was an useful technique for detecting and measuring RI of the cPDA. The evaluation of RI of the cPDA may be a valuable supportive diagnostic procedure for evaluating the pancreatitis or suspected in dogs.

임상적으로 건강한 비글견 17두와 췌장염으로 진단된 5두(요크셔테리어 3두, 토이푸들 2두)의 견에서, 화학보정 없이 전방 십이지장동맥(cranial pancreaticodudenal artery: cPDA) 혈관저항지수(resitive index: RI)를 측정하고 이를 비교 평가하였다. RI 측정을 위해 이중 펄스 색도플러 초음파와 11-MHz 선형 위상차 배열 탐촉자를 이용하였다. 췌장염견(0.75$\pm$0.04)견의 평균 RI는 정상견(0.63$\pm$0.04)과 비교하여 유의성(t = 5.79, p = 0.001)있게 증가된 소견을 보였다. 췌장염에 이환 또는 의증 환축에서는 cPDA의 RI 평가 또한 보조적 진단 가치가 있음을 확인하였다.
