Sonographic imaging and measurement in vivo of the thyroid gland of 10 cats was compared with the histologic appearance and the physical measurements of the extirpted glands. Al though the general echotexture of the thyroid glands could be evaluated, poor margin determi nation resulted in a poor correlation with the physical measurements. Physical size, weight, and volume parameters of the normal feline thyroid are presented.

Key Words: sonographic measurement • feline thyroid
