What is Veterinary Imaging?
Veterinary imaging refers to the use of diagnostic tools such as X-rays or ultrasounds to examine the internal structures of pets without the need for invasive procedures. These technologies help us assess bones, organs, and tissues, enabling us to diagnose a wide range of conditions, from fractures and joint issues to tumors and internal diseases. Our experienced veterinarians use these advanced tools to provide precise diagnoses and personalized treatment plans.
Our Imaging Services
We offer comprehensive diagnostic procedures, including:
Pet X-Rays (Radiology)
Pet X-rays are one of the most common diagnostic tools in veterinary medicine. They allow us to examine bones, joints, and internal organs to detect fractures, arthritis, tumors, and foreign objects. Our digital X-ray technology provides high-quality images quickly, minimizing stress for your pet and ensuring faster diagnosis and treatment.
Pet Ultrasound
Pet ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses sound waves to create real-time images of internal organs. This is particularly useful for evaluating the heart, liver, kidneys, and reproductive organs. Ultrasound helps us diagnose conditions such as heart disease, tumors, pregnancy, and gastrointestinal issues without the need for surgery.
