Abstract
Ultrasonographic study of the abdomen was performed on

Out of the total number of dogs, 121 (3.86%) dogs were
suffering from various gastrointestinal affections, which
included intussusception (8.26%), gastritis (9.9%),
inflammatory bowel disease (21.5%), impaction (21.5%),
foreign body obstruction (26.4%), gastric dilatation (7.4%)
and neoplasms (5.0%). It was concluded that ultrasonography
was a useful aid in the diagnosis of different gastrointestinal
