Four dogs with an accessory spleen are described. The accessory spleens appeared as a round-to-triangular structure located in the perisplenic area. They were homogeneous and isoechoic with the adjacent spleen. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound was performed using a second generation microbubble contrast medium (sulfur hexafluoride). The type and timing of enhancement of the accessory spleen was similar to that of the parent spleen. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound is a noninvasive modality useful in distinguishing an accessory spleen from a mass of another origin.
本文描述了四只患有副脾的犬。副脾表现为位于脾周区域的圆形至三角形结构。它们与相邻的脾脏质地均匀且回声相同。使用第二代微泡造影剂（六氟化硫）进行了超声造影检查。副脾的强化类型和时间与主脾相似。超声造影是一种无创性检查方法，有助于将副脾与其他来源的肿块区分开来。
