Diagnostics
We can diagnose many problems quickly with our state-of-the-art digital X-ray system and top-of-the-line ultrasound and endoscopy machine. Our doctor has specialized training in performing and interpreting ultrasounds and X-rays, so an immediate diagnosis is likely.
Diagnostic Imaging: X-Ray and Ultrasound
Pet diagnostic imaging involves using various techniques to create visual representations of the internal structures of your pet’s body. These imaging modalities include X-rays and ultrasounds. These tools enable our veterinary team to examine bones, organs, and tissues, aiding in the identification of potential health issues.
Our doctor is experienced in reading X-rays, so an immediate diagnosis is likely. Radiological consults are available through an outside specialist on more challenging cases and can be accomplished quickly with electronic transmission of the digital X-ray image via a computer.
Our doctor has specialized training in performing and interpreting ultrasounds. At Treehouse Animal Hospital, all our ultrasounds are performed and diagnosed by the doctor, resulting in a more comprehensive evaluation with immediate results.
