Diagnostic Imaging
(X-Ray & Ultrasound)
At Vetopia Animal Hospital, we believe that an accurate diagnosis is the first step toward effective treatment. That’s why we offer advanced imaging services right here in our hospital, including digital X-rays and ultrasound.
Advanced imaging services
Digital X-Rays
Our state-of-the-art digital radiography allows us to capture high-quality images quickly and safely. X-rays are a valuable diagnostic tool for evaluating:
- Bones and joints (fractures, arthritis, orthopedic conditions)
- Chest and lungs (heart size, fluid, tumors)
- Abdomen (foreign objects, organ size, gastrointestinal issues)
Digital X-rays provide fast results and minimal radiation exposure, helping us make timely decisions for your pet’s care.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound is a non-invasive and painless imaging technique that uses sound waves to create real-time images of your pet’s internal organs. It’s especially helpful for examining:
- Abdominal organs (liver, kidneys, bladder, intestines)
- Heart (echocardiography)
- Pregnancies
- Abnormal fluid buildup or masses
Ultrasound provides a detailed look at soft tissues, complementing what we see on X-rays and helping us reach a more accurate diagnosis.
When Is Imaging Recommended?
When Is Imaging Recommended?
We may recommend imaging if your pet is experiencing symptoms such as:
- Vomiting or diarrhea
- Lameness or difficulty moving
- Breathing issues
- Unexplained weight loss or swelling
- Trauma or injury
With in-house imaging, we can often get answers the same day and begin treatment right away
Your pet’s health is our priority
so we can treat the problem, not just the symptoms.
