Pet Radiology Services

For many years, veterinarians have employed radiographs as a reliable, non-invasive method to examine inside the body of the animal. High-energy radiography beams are directed into the desired area of your pet’s body using a radiograph equipment. The radiographic rays will be absorbed by the denser tissues in your pet’s body, such as the bones and teeth, and this will be captured on the computer screen.

To diagnose and assess broken bones, blockages, arthritis, lumps, and cancers, digital x-rays are frequently employed. Digital x-rays are also used to confirm pregnancies and find things ingested.

Radiography employs only tiny amounts of radiation and is painless, safe, and non-invasive. Even pregnant women and very young pets can have radiography done because the required level of radiation exposure is so low. The size, form, and location of many of the body’s organs can all be determined by radiographs, as well as the condition of the bones. Organ size is crucial because some diseases, such as kidney, heart, or liver, can change these organs’ size. Certain medical disorders, such as intestinal blockage or cancer, can alter or distort the form and location of organs. Depending on their size and location, tumors can occasionally be found using radiography.

 

Pet Ultrasound Services

Ultrasounds are great for diagnosing patients. The procedure is quick, painless, and better than radiographs since it does not use harmful radiation. Instead, ultrasounds use sound waves to allow us to look inside your pet’s body to help us diagnose their problems. Ultrasounds are often a better alternative to radiographs because they will enable us to see your pet’s vital organs. Also, some conditions can only be diagnosed using ultrasounds.

We are happy to be able to offer you all of the very best diagnostic tools. The sooner we can diagnose your pets, the quicker we can begin treatment, and the faster they will return to their usual selves.
