Abstract :

Six healthy male dog aged about 1.5-2 years with average body weight of 20±0.5 kg were selected for this study. Before experiments, vital signs were recorded. Blood and urine samples were collected prior to the trails and paraclinical examinations were performed. Urine samples were analysed for glucose, bilirubin, urobilinogen, blood, keton bodies, pH, creatinine, specific gravity and urine precipitation. Serum samples were analysed for creatinine and blood uria nitrogen. Electrocardiographs were taken and then positive contrast cystography with the use of urografin 76% was performed on each animal. After 2 and 24 hours clinical parameters were recorded and urine samples were collected. Ventrodorsal abdominal radiographs were taken immediately and at 5, 20 and 40 minutes after injection of contrast media. In each case there was no significant difference between the clinical, urine, biochemical and heamatologic parameters befor and 2 and 24 hours following injection of urografin (P>0.05). electrocardiographic findings showed no abnormality following injection of urografin. Radiographic findinges showed that urografin had suitable and perfect contrast with no side effects for urinary system in small ruminant.
