Veterinary Radiology and Ultrasound

Digital X-rays produce images with less radiation exposure than traditional film. These digital images are easy to compare with other images to help us check your pet for bone fractures, joint inflammation, heart and lung abnormalities, and many other internal issues. Digital X-ray procedures are a safe, painless, and non-invasive way to gather information about your pet and their condition.

Ultrasonography provides us with information about the function of your pet’s internal organs. This is yet another timely and non-invasive method of analysis, as an ultrasound allows us to assess the soft tissue organs through shape, size, or texture and to detect any blood flow or internal abnormalities that may be associated with your pet’s condition. Ultrasound can also help with the sampling of organs, masses, or fluid to offer more thorough diagnostics.

CT scan allows our team to view and diagnose issues related to the lungs, bones, and soft tissue organs. CT scan images are similar to radiographs but provide more detail and can be reformatted into a three-dimensional reconstruction for more accurate viewing. Light anesthesia is required to ensure your pet remains still while the scan takes place, and this procedure typically takes just 15 minutes.
