Figure 2.9.7 Pituitary Microadenoma (Canine) CT
12y FS Border Terrier with confirmed pituitary‐
dependent hyperadrenocorticism. Images a
and b are representative transverse images at
the level of the pituitary fossa. Image d is a
magnified view of image c. A uniformly con-
trast‐enhancing and symmetrical pituitary
gland is evident (b–d: arrow). The gland is
considered within normal limits for size
(height = 4 mm, width = 6 mm), but the dorsal
margin is convex and extends beyond the dor-
sal extent of the sella turcica.
