Figure 1

Ultrasonographic image of the left abdomen of horses with colic associated with enteritis and/or colitisusing 3.5 MHz transducer. The intestinal loops appear distended with fluid contents; the intestinal wall is slightly thickenedand corrugated. Increased intestinal motility of the intestinal loops was detected on the screen.

Ultrasonographic image of the left abdomen of horses with colic associated with impaction of the intestineusing 3.5 MHz transducer. There was marked distension of the descending colon with ingested materials that appeared hypo to hyperechoic. The intestinal loop diameter exceeds 8 cm.
