PET X-RAY

Digital X-ray imaging allows veterinarians to quickly evaluate bones, joints, and internal structures. Combined with ultrasound imaging and lab services, X-rays help identify injuries, structural abnormalities, and certain internal conditions.

Our imaging technology allows us to diagnose problems efficiently and guide appropriate treatment plans, including pre- surgical planning and dental assessments.

Key Diagnostic Radiology Includes

  • Bone and joint imaging used to diagnose fractures, arthritis, and skeletal abnormalities.
  • Injury and trauma evaluation to assess accidents or sudden mobility issues.
  • Chest and abdominal imaging to examine internal organs and detect abnormalities.
  • Dental and structural evaluations when imaging is required for oral or skeletal assessment.
  • Pre-surgical diagnostic imaging used to guide treatment planning and procedures.

Answers to the Most Common Questions that pet parent’s ask us!

Is X-ray safe for my dog or cat?

Yes, veterinary radiography is a safe diagnostic tool. We utilize digital imaging systems that capture clear radiographs quickly, which helps minimize the amount of radiation exposure required for your pet.

Do x-rays show any internal organ issues?

X-rays provide useful structural details regarding internal organs, showing shifts in physical shape, size, positioning, or the accumulation of fluid. To accurately evaluate how well an organ is functioning, we combine radiography with baseline bloodwork.

What if my dog or cat had an accident when do you need X-rays?

Following physical trauma, an X-ray evaluation should be performed promptly if your pet exhibits lameness, a visible limp, lethargy, or signs of acute discomfort. Radiographs are essential for identifying bone fractures, joint dislocations, or hidden thoracic and abdominal injuries.

Do you take dental X-rays?

Yes, we provide digital dental imaging. This specialized radiography is critical during professional dental cleanings, allowing our team to evaluate pathology beneath the gum line, such as root damage or bone loss, which cannot be identified through visual inspection alone.

How do you combine X-rays with other diagnostics?

We utilize multiple diagnostic tools in tandem to form a comprehensive understanding of your pet's health. Combining the structural skeletal data from an X-ray with the soft-tissue clarity of an ultrasound and the metabolic data from bloodwork helps support an accurate diagnosis.
