Modern Imaging Technology for Pet Diagnosis
What Is Veterinary Radiology?
Radiology is the use of X-ray imaging to examine bones, joints, and internal organs. This tool allows veterinarians to detect issues that may not be visible during a physical exam. By capturing detailed radiographs, we can better understand your pet’s condition and create an appropriate treatment plan.
Our on-site, modern X-ray equipment provides high-quality radiographs to aid in the quick diagnosis of many disorders. Because imaging is performed directly in our hospital, we can:
- Identify fractures, dislocations, or bone deformities.
- Detects conditions such as arthritis or hip dysplasia.
- Examine the chest for signs of heart or lung disease.
- Evaluate the abdomen for foreign objects, tumors, or organ enlargement.
Benefits of On-Site Imaging
- Immediate results that allow treatment to begin sooner.
- Lower stress for your pet since all care is provided in one location.
- Close collaboration between our veterinarians and the imaging results for precise treatment planning.
- Better monitoring of chronic conditions with follow-up radiographs when needed.
