Pet Radiology
Pet radiology, also known as veterinary radiology, is a branch of veterinary medicine that uses medical imaging techniques to diagnose and monitor various health conditions in animals, primarily in pets like dogs, cats, and sometimes larger animals such as horses. Radiology plays a crucial role in veterinary medicine by providing valuable information about an animal’s internal structures and helping veterinarians make accurate diagnoses and treatment plans.
Veterinary radiology encompasses various imaging modalities, including X-rays (Radiography), Ultrasound, Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), etc.
- Digital Radiography: We use advanced digital radiography (X-ray) technology to obtain clear and detailed images of your pet’s bones, organs, and soft tissues. Digital radiography provides faster results and superior image quality than traditional film radiography.
- Diagnostic Capabilities: Radiology is a versatile diagnostic tool used to investigate a wide range of conditions, including fractures, bone diseases, foreign object ingestion, gastrointestinal issues, respiratory problems, and more.
- Non-Invasive: Radiography is non-invasive, meaning it does not require surgery or anesthesia, making it a safer and less stressful option for your pet.
- Rapid Results: Digital radiographs are processed quickly, allowing our veterinarians to assess your pet’s condition promptly. This can be crucial in emergencies.
- Veterinary Expertise: Our experienced veterinarians are skilled in interpreting radiographs. They can identify abnormalities and use the images to guide treatment decisions.
