Detection of acute intestinal ischemia is a diagnostic challenge. Color Doppler sonography of the abdomen may contribute to its diagnosis by showing lesions of the gut wall associated with occlusion or stenosis of the mesenteric vessels. Our overview of the sonographic findings of acute intestinal ischemia is presented as well as a proposition of algorithm for the working up to the diagnosis based on recent clinical experience.
