X-Rays & Ultrasounds

Ultrasound :

Our practice is equipped with an ultrasound to assist in the evaluation of your pet if required. Our veterinarians will discuss your pets case should your pet require an ultrasound examination. Ultrasound uses high frequency sound waves to painlessly produce images of internal organs and structures. This can be a very useful diagnostic tool, particularly for conditions involving soft tissues such as the abdomen and the heart.

Most of our patients are admitted into hospital for half the day to have their scan performed. We request that your pet be fasted from midnight the night before their scan (unless it is an emergency in which case the scan will be conducted as soon as possible).
