help confirming which liver lobe

13 year old MN Belgian Malinois – concern for irregular liver lobe. FNA pending. I struggle with naming which lobe – quadrate? left middle?

Hi there, it’s a bit hard to tell from the image you posted. Any reason you used the linear probe on this patient? The only reason I ask, is the Malinois is such a deep chested breed and the linear is not great at imaging deep structures. What SDEP® position were you in for this view?

I did have some curvilinear views – I will go back to see if I have a better one to post. Unfortunately this was dorsal recumbency – I tend to switch back and forth and need to make the full conversion to SDEP

Hi Kelly 🙂 For whatever reason, I can only see the still image you shared. The video isn’t running (could be my computer ?)

I have struggled at times with this, and found a nice diagram in this article, in case it’s of help?
