Two-dimensional echocardiography. a The right hepatic lobe with fatty infiltration and a homogenous increase in echogenicity in the Ob group. b The hepatic parenchyma was homogeneous and isoechoic in the control group. c The right kidney in a longitudinal section, where the pelvic dilation can be observed in the Ob group. d Another specimen of the right shows an echogenic renal sinus, with no evidence of dilation in the control group. e In both images, there is a level approach to the distal joints of the hind legs of the rodents where cystic lesions were found. Two-dimensional echocardiography: In both images, the approach is at the level of the distal joints of the hind legs of the rodents; cystic lesions were found to be predominant in the Ob group. f Damage from these lesions can be observed
