چکیده انگلیسی

A total of 40 healthy pet rats (Rattus norvegicus) were used to determine normal radiographic kidney size and to compare radiographic vs. ultrasonographic kidney measurements. Kidney length and width and length of the second lumbar vertebra were determined from survey ventrodorsal radiographic images. Kidney dimensions were also expressed as a ratio to the body length of second lumbar vertebra. Based on study results, the reference intervals for left kidney ratios were 2.39 to 3.85 and 1.21 to 2.51 for length and width, respectively. For the right kidney ratios, the reference intervals were 2.13 to 3.98 and 1.16 to 2.44 for length and width, respectively. Statistical analysis showed that for the left kidney, there was a significant difference between radiographic and ultrasonographic measures for length and width (P = 0.0036 and P < 0.001, respectively). For the right kidney, there was a significant difference between radiographic and ultrasonographic measures for width (P = 0.0017) only. As apparent differences between ultrasonographic and radiographic measurements were minor, the radiographic and ultrasonographic measurements could potentially be used interchangeably for the rat kidney.
