Non-invasive diagnostic tools used to identify internal issues and provide targeted medical care.
Radiographs (x-rays) are a commonly used tool in both veterinary and human medicine. X-rays reveal almost every soft tissue in the body (stomach, intestines, bladder, heart, kidneys and lungs) in addition to bones. At Centretown, the digital x-rays we utilize provide detailed information to help identify and diagnose a host of issues.
It is through this imaging that veterinarians are able to get a “picture” of what is going on inside your pet. They are often the greatest clues to both disease and the effectiveness of treatment.
Feel free to ask questions and talk to one of our team members to discuss any special requirements, but most often there is no special preparation needed for x-rays. On occasion, fasting instructions or timing of elimination may be required.
