Imaging
Our clinic offers radiography, and obstetric ultrasound services (for pregnant animals). The clinic is equipped with an IDEXX digital X-ray system, especially designed for animals.
What are X-rays used for?
Radiographs (X-rays) are used to obtain images of an animal’s internal organs and bones. They are particularly useful when there is a suspected fracture, sprain, strain, foreign body or internal organ infection.
And ultrasounds?
We use ultrasounds for obstetric purposes; in other words, for pregnant animals. We use ultrasound imaging to see if a female dog or cat is pregnant, and it allows us to see how many babies she is carrying and determine the stage of pregnancy.
