They are just as they say. An abdominal cat scan is just of that area and a pelvic cat scan is just of that area. Usually if an abdominal cat scan is ordered a pelvis is included so as to cover all things in both areas but if a pelvic cat scan is ordered it usually does not include the abdomen.

What is the life span after a cat has had a thyroidectomy?
A thyroidectomy removes the thyroid gland from the neck of the cat and takes away the cat's ability to make thyroid hormone (responsible for controlling basal metabolism) away. If the thyroid was removed due to a benign tumor and the cat is well managed on replacement thyroid hormone, it is reasonable to expect the cat to live a normal life span of 15-18 years. If the thyroid was removed due to a malignant tumor, the cat's life span may be dramatically reduced depending on the aggressiveness and distribution of the metastases.
