Abstract
Honamlı goats are a breed that is widely breed by public in the Mediterranean region. Urinary system diseases in goats are frequently seen diseases that reduce productivity. Diseases such as renal failure, acute and chronic kidney diseases, renal steatosis, non-hypercalciuria urolithiasis are frequently seen renal diseases in goats. However, the ultrasonography method used in the early diagnosis of these diseases cannot be diagnosed by macroscopic examination. Image analysis programs are also used to diagnose kidney diseases that cannot be diagnosed in ultrasonographic images. In this study, 24 healthy Honamlı goats (12 males, 12 females) were used. 24 of the goats (12 males, 12 females) were animals over 2 years old. In the study, ultrasound images were taken from both kidneys using a 6.5 Mhz probe. Normative data were obtained in healthy animals by performing histogram analysis on the images.

Abstract
Honamlı keçileri Akdeniz bölgesinde halk elinde yetiştiriciliği yaygın olan bir ırktır. Keçilerde üriner sistem hastalıkları sıklıkla görülen verimi de düşürücü hastalıklardır. Renal yetmezlik, akut ve kronik böbrek hastalıkları, renal yağlanma, non hiperkalsiüri ürolithiazis gibi hastalıklar keçilerde sıklıkla görülen renal hastalıklardır. Ancak bu hastalıkların erken teşhisinde kullanılan ultrasonografi yönteminde makroskobik bakıda teşhis yapılamamaktadır. Ultrasonografik görüntülerde teşhis edilemeyen böbrek hastalıklarının teşhisi için de görüntü analiz programlarından yararlanılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada 12 adet (6 erkek, 6 dişi) sağlıklı Honamlı keçisi kullanıldı Keçilerin 12 tanesinin (6 erkek, 6 dişi) ise 2 yaşını doldurmuş hayvanlardan oluştu. Çalışmada 6,5 Mhz'lik prob kullanılarak her iki böbrekten ultrason görüntüsü alındı. Görüntüler üzerinde histogram analizi yapılarak sağlıklı hayvanlarda normatif veriler elde edildi.
