Five dogs with unilateral thoracic limb lameness, neurologic deficits, muscle atrophy, and pain, or a combination of these signs, were examined using ultrasonograghy. Large, hypoechoic tubular masses that displaced vessels and destroyed the normal architecture were found in each dog. The affected axilla of each patient was then imaged with computed tomography or magnetic resonance to fully assess the extent of the masses. We describe the use of ultrasound in screening patients for brachial plexus tumors.
对五只出现单侧胸肢跛行、神经功能缺损、肌肉萎缩和疼痛，或这些症状组合的犬进行了超声检查。在每只犬中均发现了大的、低回声管状肿块，这些肿块使血管移位并破坏了正常结构。然后对每位患者受影响的腋窝进行计算机断层扫描或磁共振成像，以全面评估肿块的范围。我们描述了超声在筛查臂丛神经肿瘤患者中的应用。
