hi i'm dr camilla edwards from first opinion veterinary ultrasound and today we'll be looking at how to scan the jerijunum of a dog so we start up by the corner between the costal arch and the dorsal lumbar musculature where we'll find the left kidney and then we perform a castle pattern so we move ventrally then slightly quarterly and then move dorsally again and we're looking out for loops of jerijunum as we go when we see a loop of jerijunum we may want to freeze and then measure the wall so here we have a transverse loop and we measure from the edge of the lumen to the edge of the sarosa we're also looking out for peristalsis we continue our castle pattern looking out for longitudinal and transverse loops of intestine and once we get back to the bladder we know we've scanned the whole jed union and that is how to scan the jail junum of a dog
