Why Choose Diagnostic Imaging for Your Pet?
When your pet is unwell, determining the underlying cause quickly and accurately is essential. Diagnostic imaging provides a non-invasive way to look inside your pet’s body, helping our veterinarians make informed decisions about their health care plan.
Understanding Your Pet’s Needs
Whether it’s a sudden illness or a chronic condition, diagnostic imaging can help identify issues such as:
- Fractures or broken bones
- Tumors or masses
- Foreign objects
- Organ abnormalities
Our advanced imaging technology allows us to visualize these problems without the need for invasive surgery, reducing stress and discomfort for your pet.
Our Diagnostic Imaging Services
At Fort Lauderdale Pet Vets, we offer a range of imaging services tailored to meet your pet’s specific needs. Our experienced team is dedicated to providing accurate and timely results, ensuring your pet receives the care they deserve.
Digital X-Rays
Digital X-rays are a vital tool in veterinary diagnostics, offering clear images of your pet’s skeletal structure and internal organs. This technology allows us to quickly assess conditions such as:
- Bone fractures
- Arthritis
- Dental issues
With digital X-rays, we can enhance and magnify images for better clarity, ensuring no detail is missed during diagnosis.
Ultrasound Imaging
Ultrasound is a safe and painless way to examine your pet’s internal organs. Using sound waves, we can create detailed images of the heart, liver, kidneys, and more. Ultrasounds are particularly useful for:
- Evaluating heart conditions
- Detecting tumors
- Monitoring pregnancies
Our skilled technicians ensure a comfortable experience for your pet while providing essential insights into their health.
CT Scans
For more complex cases, a CT scan might be necessary. This advanced imaging technique offers a comprehensive view of your pet’s anatomy, helping us diagnose conditions that are not visible with standard X-rays or ultrasounds. CT scans are beneficial for:
- Complex bone fractures
- Detailed organ assessment
- Planning surgical procedures
Our team is trained to handle these sophisticated machines, ensuring precise results and comprehensive care for your pet.
The Diagnostic Imaging Process
We strive to make the diagnostic imaging process as smooth and stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.
Initial Consultation
Before any imaging takes place, our veterinarians will conduct a thorough physical examination and discuss your pet’s symptoms and medical history. This helps us determine the most appropriate imaging method for your pet’s condition.
Imaging Procedure
During the imaging procedure, our compassionate staff will ensure your pet is comfortable and relaxed. Depending on the type of imaging, sedation may be used to keep your pet still and stress-free.
Review and Diagnosis
