Abstract
Transabdominal ultrasonography is frequently used to diagnose small intesti nal intussusceptions in foals. We demonstrate that transabdominal ultrasono graphy also provides a rapid and accurate diagnosis of small intestinal int ussusception in adult horses. A detailed description of the ultrasonographi c appearance is provided.
