Injuries and Ailments Diagnosed via Radiology and Ultrasounds
When it comes to accurately diagnosing and treating your pet after he or she has experienced an injury or illness, you can count on our veterinary team to have the latest diagnostic equipment, including digital imaging devices and ultrasound machines.
Digital images, including ultrasounds, radiographs, MRIs, and CT scans, are used to diagnose a variety of conditions and ailments in dogs and cats.
Common conditions diagnosed include broken bones, joint problems, tumors, and problems with the internal organs, including the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, and bladder.
Ultrasound Imaging
Ultrasound imaging uses sound waves to create an image on a computer monitor. When our team passes the wand over an injured or affected area of your pet, we can find otherwise what may be hidden problems.
Ultrasound imaging is entirely painless and does not have any side effects.
Radiographs (X-Ray)
The common term for a radiograph is an x-ray. These images assist us in diagnosing problems and conditions with the bones and joints, such as broken bones, swelling in the joints, and other types of bone abnormalities. X-rays can also diagnose some problems with the internal organs, like the heart, lungs, spleen, liver, and kidneys.
Diagnosing Your Pet’s Ailment or Injury
Our veterinary staff can rapidly diagnose your pet’s injury or condition via x-rays or ultrasound imaging. Once Audrain Veterinary Clinic understands the depth of your pet’s illness or injury, a treatment plan will be developed to help your pet heal and restore its health.
If you have any questions or concerns about your pet’s health and the diagnosis, we would be happy to answer them and provide guidance to help make your pet comfortable during the healing process.
