Abstract
The study was carried out to evaluate the applicability of magnetic re sonance imaging (MRI) in detecting tumors in the abdomen of the dog. A bdominal ultrasound and MRI were performed on 8 dogs having a mass les ion on abdominal radiography. MR images were obtained in the transvers e, sagittal and dorsal planes using T1- and T2-weighted spill echo pul se sequences, There was good visual correlation of the lesion site by MRI and ultrasonography (US).
