Background: Lung ultrasound (LUS) is increasingly utilized in veterinary medicine to assess pulmonary conditions. However, the characterization of pleural line and subpleural fields using different ultrasound transducers, specifically high-frequency linear ultrasound transducers (HFLUT) and curvilinear transducers (CUT), remains underexplored in canine patients. This study aimed to evaluate inter-rater agreement in the characterization of pleural line and subpleural fields using B- and M-mode ultrasonography in dogs with and without respiratory distress.

Thoracic point-of-care ultrasound (T-POCUS) has grown in popularity and usage in small animal emergencies and critical care settings due to its non-invasive nature, mobility, and ability to acquire images in real time. This review summarizes current understanding about T-POCUS in dogs and cats with respiratory illnesses, including normal thoracic ultrasonography appearance and numerous pathological situations. The basics of T-POCUS are covered, including equipment, scanning procedures, and picture settings.

Normal shear stress produced by blood flow is sensed by the vascular endothelium and required for maintenance of the homeostatic functions of the endothelium in systemic conduit and resistance vessels. Many critical illnesses are characterised by periods of abnormally reduced or absent shear stress in the lung (e.g.

Article Synopsis
- Negative pressure pulmonary edema (NPPE) occurs when a rapid drop in pressure in the chest cavity leads to fluid buildup in the lungs, often due to airway blockages, and can cause severe breathing problems.
- This case study highlights a young female patient's experience with NPPE after undergoing surgery for an ectopic pregnancy, where she faced a sudden drop in oxygen levels and breathing difficulties right after being taken off the ventilator.
- The medical team responded quickly with treatments like oxygen therapy and medications, resulting in her recovery and discharge from the hospital after six days of care.
Unexpected pulmonary edema following sitting position craniotomy: A venous air embolism complication.

We report a case of a 42-year-old female who had non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema following a setting position craniotomy to remove a left cerebellar pontine angle mass. During the operation, the patient experienced a sudden drop in her end-tidal CO2 levels, which needed an immediate intervention. After ruling out other potential causes, we determined that air venous embolism was the cause of this unexpected and serious complication.
