X-rays are the most common imaging tool we use to examine your dog or cat’s organs and their cardiopulmonary, gastrointestinal, reproductive, and urinary systems. This is a non-invasive procedure that allows the veterinarian to get a better look at the conditions affecting your pet.
There are a number of benefits to using digital x-rays over film x-rays. Digital x-rays have a higher image quality compared to traditional x-rays, making it much easier to view and interpret. These images are instantly available to the veterinarian, which means less time away from your pet and a faster, more accurate diagnosis. There is also lessened exposure to radiation with digital radiology thanks to computer - and it’s more environmentally friendly!
When digital radiology is used:
▪ To find foreign objects or materials within the body that may have been ingested
▪ To diagnose fractures, bone and/or joint abnormalities, and various injuries
▪ To screen for abnormalities within the heart, lungs, urinary, and digestive organs
▪ To screen for certain types of cancer
