Lung mass, choleliths
10 yr FS Boxer cross presented for coughing which seems to have resolved per owner. Please comment on attached thoracic radiographs. I was unable to find a discrete mass 1 week later, but have attached a video of all I could see of more consolidated lung adjacent to the heart. pcDVM actually captured the other…

bilateral very enlarged and irregular adrenal glands

residual ectopic ureter?
9 year old FS Husky mix current UTI and non-regenerative disease. Unremarkable ultrasound other than finding this distended left ureter. Was thinking it is an ectopic ureter, but pcDVM later found out pet has had surgery for this with the ureter having been attached to the lateral blad wall. I would love some input on…
