Résumé
Extrahepatic-congenital portosystemic shunt is a vascular anomaly that connects the portal vein to the systemic circulation and leads to a change in hepatic microvascular perfusion. However, an assessment of hepatic microvascular perfusion is limited by conventional diagnostic modalities. The aim of this prospective, exploratory study was to assess hepatic microvascular perfusion in dogs with extrahepatic-congenital portosystemic shunt using contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) using perfluorobutane (Sonazoid
