Ultrasonographic evaluation of the reproductive tract is an important component in the evaluation of the dog and tom with reproductive disorders. Information is obtained confirming normal anatomy as well as pathologic conditions (eg, testicular neoplasia). Serial ultrasonographic evaluation of the diseased reproductive tract can be very helpful in evaluating progression of disease (eg, testicular atrophy) and response to therapy (eg, benign prostatic hyperplasia).
