Experimental induction and monitoring of liver abscesses in cattle with ultrasonography

Lechtenberg, K.F.; Avery, T.B.; Nagaraja, Tiruvoor G.
We have demonstrated that ultrasonography can be used to visualize liver

abscess in live cattle. We have also developed a nonsurgical method of catheterizing

the bovine portal vein and experimentally inducing liver abscesses by inoculating the

portal vein with Fusobacterium necrophorum bacteria.
