Digital Radiology (X-Rays)
Radiographs, or X-rays can detect abnormalities including, but not limited to, skeletal fractures, soft tissue abnormalities, foreign bodies, and dental disease.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound is a powerful diagnostic tool that creates a real-time image of an animal’s body. This composite reveals important information about internal processes.
An ultrasound works by broadcasting high-frequency sound waves that reflect off your pet’s internal structures. A small probe held against the skin collects the returning signals to create an image of the internal body, most commonly used to examine abdominal organs.
