Coughing Pug

Sonopath Forum

– 7 year old Pug w acute onset of coughing and resp. distress

– referring DVM started on Lasix and sent me this chest rad – I am scheduled to do a thoracic scan

– the pet stablized and once breathing better, there was no heart murmur present

– any thoughts on this chest rad before I perform ultrasound? Unfotunately only one view was sent to me. Looks like a small trachea which is part of brachycephalic syndrome. Possible pneumonia? Cranial mediastinal disease? PAH with right heart enlargement? This looks like a fat pug as well
