Ultrasound

Abdominal Ultrasounds:

Abdominal ultrasounds are a non-invasive imaging technique that allows our experienced veterinary team to examine the internal organs of your pet's abdomen in real-time. This diagnostic tool is invaluable for identifying and evaluating various conditions, including:

1. Gastrointestinal Issues:

   • Ultrasounds help assess the digestive system, detecting abnormalities such as tumors, inflammation, or foreign bodies.
     
     

2. Liver and Kidney Function:

   • Detailed imaging of the liver and kidneys aids in diagnosing conditions like hepatic disease or renal dysfunction.
     
     

3. Urinary Tract Abnormalities:

   • Ultrasounds assist in evaluating the urinary system for issues such as bladder stones, infections, or structural abnormalities.
     
     

Echocardiogram Ultrasounds:

Echocardiograms, or cardiac ultrasounds, focus on imaging the heart and its functioning. This advanced diagnostic tool helps our veterinary cardiologists assess:
​​​​​​​

1. Heart Structure and Function:

   • Echocardiograms provide detailed images of the heart's chambers, valves, and blood flow, aiding in the diagnosis of structural abnormalities or heart diseases.
     
     

2. Congenital Heart Conditions:

   • Early detection of congenital heart issues is crucial for managing and treating these conditions effectively.
     
     

3. Heart Murmurs and Arrhythmias:

   • Echocardiography assists in identifying murmurs, irregular heartbeats, and other cardiac abnormalities.
     
     

4. Monitoring Heart Disease:

   • For pets with known heart conditions, regular echocardiograms help monitor disease progression and guide treatment adjustments.
     
     

Benefits of Ultrasound Imaging:

1. Non-Invasive and Painless:

   • Both abdominal and echocardiogram ultrasounds are non-invasive, ensuring a stress-free experience for your pet.
