This is a 9 yr old Standard Poodle with history of loss of energy,variable appetite,weaker hindlimbs. Her RDVM found calcium elevation on chemistry of 14.1 and phos 2.4. They went on to run ionized Calcium 1.87(1.24-1.43) intact PTH normal.She has been on furosimide. On PE her lung fields had some increased sounds. She has had cough intermittently for years. Chest rads- brochial thickening age related changes.
Ultrasound- No parathyroid nodule identified.
Basically normal with small nephrolith

Looked at the heart. I was drawn to the IVS. The texture and echogenicity appears abnormal. It measured just above normal on M-mode.I am looking for input on the septal changes. Thanks
