Article Synopsis
  • - Abdominal fat necrosis in camels often appears incidentally during exams, presenting as hard masses; the differential diagnosis can include other serious conditions like tumors.
  • - A 7-year-old female dromedary camel experienced weakness and weight loss, leading to various treatments that were ineffective until advanced diagnostic methods were used, revealing multiple masses and other abnormalities.
  • - Transabdominal ultrasonography proved essential for identifying potential abdominal masses and facilitating biopsy, but histopathological analysis ultimately confirmed the diagnosis of abdominal fat necrosis and associated conditions.

Sound reflection from bony structures and from air-filled lung parenchyma limits transcutaneous B-mode thoracic ultrasound of the mediastinum. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the thorax are the primary overview imaging modalities for mediastinal pathologies. However, pathological processes originating from the mediastinum can be sonographically visualized and evaluated in the presence of displacing or infiltrative growth.
