【 摘 要 】

References(23)Cited-By(7)For the evaluation of canine gastric motility with ultrasonography, contraction number of pyloric antrum and gastric emptying time (GET) by area and volume method developed by Bolondi et al.'s method were studied in 14 dogs. All experimental dogs were administered with saline and soup solution (10 ml/kg, B.W.). The mean values of contraction number of pyloric antrum in saline and soup group were 4.19 ± 1.30/min and 4.82 ± 0.65/min before feeding, and overall mean values were 4.66 ± 1.37/min and 5.13 ± 1.71/min, respectively. The mean values of the GET by area and volume method were 36.73 ± 11.27, 40.00 ± 8.87 min in saline group and 61.35 ± 17.58, 59.11 ± 14.46 min in soup group. In the GET in saline and soup groups, there was no significant difference between the area and volume method (p>0.05). Therefore, Bolondi et al.'s method by ultrasound can be used to evaluate the antropyloric motility and gastric emptying time with area and volume methods. The area method is easier to determine the GET than the volume method, but the latter is more accurate.
