High-Tech Care with Cat & Dog Imaging
The range of veterinary conditions and illnesses digital radiography (X-rays) and ultrasonography can diagnose is lengthy. Digital X-rays process at a nearly instantaneous rate, so we can promptly figure out what’s ailing your pet. All our radiographs are sent out to be read by a board-certified radiologist. Our ultrasound machine shows us three-dimensional images in real-time so we can see what’s going on inside your pet’s abdomen.
Some conditions digital X-rays and ultrasonography can help us diagnose:
- We’re able to analyze the size, shape, and place of organs to diagnose various organ diseases including liver, kidney, and heart disease.
- We can observe tooth decay and any bone loss from periodontal disease using X-rays.
- Bladder or kidney stones can be diagnosed.
- Pancreatitis can be accurately diagnosed.
- We can assess orthopedic problems such as arthritis, fractures, and soft tissue injury.
- We can perform barium studies to check for gastrointestinal obstruction.
- Our team can accurately estimate litter sizes.
Testing for Concerns with Laboratory Analysis
With our full in-house laboratory, we can check for many types of diseases and infections. For senior pets and pets with underlying concerns, we can run bloodwork and take a urine sample to check organ function and thyroid levels. Through urinalysis, our doctors can tell if your pet is experiencing a urinary tract infection (UTI), diabetes, or liver disease.
