My Cali has a very mild MVD (internal shunts) and her BAT were 0/94 and 0/43 if I recall correctly. We did the ultrasound which showed nothing, then we did a liver biopsy when she was spayed which showed a very mild MVD with no treatment necessary. The specialist said that in her experience when the BAT's are under 100 it can be an internal shunt and real high numbers (300) would be more likely to be external shunt. Hopefully your baby will not have this but in most cases it is treatable. keep up posted.
Welcome!!!
