The aim of the investigation was the comparison of the diagnostic value of the clinical, radiological and ultrasonographic examinations in the diagnosis of focal changes in the liver and the determination of the relations between the changes in the ultrasound image of the liver and the changes in other organs. The investigation was performed on 24 animals: 20 dogs and 4 cats of different breeds and sex, aged 1.5 to 14 years. The ultrasonographic examinations were done using the apparatus of Bruel and Kjaer type 1849 and Concept 2000 of Dynamic Imiging. The following changes were diagnosed in the ultrasonic picture: aechogenic changes in 5 animals, hypoechogenic in 2 animals, normechogenic in 2 animals, hyperechogenic in 8 animals and changes of mixed echogenicity in 5 animals. The connection between clinical signs and the results of X-ray and ultrasonographic examination allowed the recognition of the changes in the liver as cysts, abscess and neoplasm of the liver.
