Ovaries:
small so not usually seen on radiographs. If enlarged, a mass may be apparent caudal to the kidney on the DV view or in the centre of the abdomen on the lateral projection. If the ovaries become significantly enlarged the ligamentous attachment may be stretched and they appear more ventral.

MALE

Prostate:
It is difficult to see prostate enlargement on a VD view because it is summated with the rectum, which often contains faeces. The lateral view shows a clearer image. Dorsal displacement of the colon can indicate prostatic enlargement. The bladder will not displace the colon.

Sublumbar lymph node
Located at the termination of the aorta in the caudodorsal abdomen. Enlargement of these lymph nodes will result in ventral displacement of the colon.
