High-Tech Care with Cat & Dog Imaging
The range of veterinary conditions and illnesses digital radiography (x-rays) and ultrasonography helps diagnose is lengthy. These tools are indispensable at our hospital. 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 to give us real-time results about what’s going on inside your pet’s abdomen. Some conditions digital x-rays and ultrasonography help us diagnose:
- We’re able to analyze the size, shape, and place of organs to diagnose liver, kidney, and heart disease.
- We can observe tooth decay and any bone loss from periodontal disease.
- Bladder or kidney stones are apparent.
- Pancreatitis is accurately diagnosed.
- Assess orthopedic problems such as arthritis, fractures, and soft tissue injury.
- Perform barium studies to check for gastrointestinal obstruction.
- Accurately estimate litter sizes.
Testing for Concerns with Laboratory Analysis
With the help of our full in-house laboratory, we’re able to check for many types of disease and infection. We’ll run bloodwork and take a urine sample to check organ function and thyroid levels for seniors and pets with underlying concerns. Through urinalysis, our doctors can tell if your pet is experiencing a urinary tract infection (UTI), diabetes, or liver disease. For more information about our in-house diagnostics and how we use them to keep your pet happy and healthy, please call us at (770) 817-9565.
