Sonographically, normal salivary glands are presented as slightly hypoechoic and homogeneous structures, however, in cases of acute sialoadenitis, the sonographic findings may be variable depending on the stage of evolution.
Other sonographic changes as hypervascularization of the salivary glands in color Doppler imaging and regional lymphadenopathy, both found in the animal reported, may also be observed in cases of sialoadenitis (6).
