Ultrasound Imaging

  Ultrasound examinations are yet another medical service that we provide.  Ultrasound machines use sound waves that allow us to look inside internal organs or identify abnormal masses.  Ultrasounds are safe, non-invasive procedures that do not usually require sedation.  The only preparation your pet may need is to have the fur over the area to be examined shaved off.  Our specially trained veterinarians are able to interpret ultrasound images in the clinic for immediate diagnosis.

Ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging technique that is considered safe and does not involve radiation. Ultrasound waves can assess the size, texture, and shape of organs and tissues, by providing a two-dimensional image.

This technique was first used in veterinary medicine for pregnancy diagnosis. However, ultrasound images are also extremely useful in evaluating heart conditions, abdominal organs, and the eyes, as well as the identification of cysts and tumors.
