🩻 This video demonstrates ultrasound scanning of the duodenum and pylorus in dogs, using both intercostal and subcostal approaches.

🩺 Duodenum - Intercostal Approach
• Place the microconvex probe at the 9th–10th intercostal space, transverse to the dog with the marker facing you.
• Identify the duodenum and adjust depth as needed.
• Slide the probe ventrally along the rib space, moving one rib space cranial or caudal if required.
• Follow the duodenum in transverse and longitudinal planes — it continues caudally in a straight line.

🩺 Pylorus - Subcostal Approach
• Apply firm pressure to visualise the pylorus, particularly in larger dogs.
• Note: un-sedated patients may not tolerate this approach.
• Anatomical limitations exist — it can be difficult in dogs over 40 kg or when the stomach is distended with food or gas.
