Ultrasound

Pet ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the internal structures of your pet’s body.

It is a valuable tool that can detect conditions such as tumors, bladder stones, and pregnancy that may not be apparent through physical examination alone. Early intervention and treatment can potentially improve outcomes for your pet.

Once a diagnosis has been made, ultrasound can also help your veterinarian plan the most appropriate course of treatment for your pet. For example, it can determine the size and location of a tumor, which can guide decisions about surgery, radiation therapy, or other treatments.

If your pet is receiving treatment for a medical condition, ultrasound can be used to monitor their progress. This can allow your veterinarian to make adjustments to the treatment plan as needed to ensure the best possible outcome for your pet.

Unlike other imaging techniques, such as X-rays and CT scans, ultrasound is non-invasive and does not expose your pet to ionizing radiation. This can be especially beneficial for pets with chronic conditions that require frequent imaging.

We are committed to providing the best care for your pet, and pet ultrasound is just one of the many ways we achieve this goal.
