Membership of AAVDI is open to anyone interested in diagnostic imaging. Membership is included with the registration fee for the annual conference.

CT angiogram: 3D reconstruction of the abdominal vasculature in a 1 year old Maltese cross dog. Cranial is to the left, and caudal (pelvis) is to the right. The patient has a large, tortuous, extrahepatic portosystemic shunt (PSS).  Note how the caudal vena cava (CaVA) enlarges dramatically after the entrance of the shunt.

CT Angiogram, as above. The image has been rotated, and you are viewing it from the ventral aspect of the abdomen, with the right kidney on the left side of the image. This image demonstrates the tortuosity of the shunting vessel. Courtesy of Murdoch University Veterinary Hospital.
