Ultrasound
ULTRASOUND
Ultrasound is a painless procedure with no known side effects. It does not involve radiation and can be a useful diagnostic tool for our veterinary team.
This diagnostic tool is used in conjunction with radiology.
Ultrasonography, or ultrasound, is a diagnostic imaging technique similar to radiography (X-rays). It is often used in conjunction with radiography and other diagnostic measures. It allows visibility into the deep structures of the body.
Ultrasound can be used for a variety of purposes including examination of the animal’s heart, kidneys, liver, gallbladder, bladder, etc. It can also be used to determine pregnancy and to monitor an ongoing pregnancy. Ultrasound can detect fluid, cysts, tumors or abscesses.
VMC has an inhouse ultrasound machine that allows our veterinary staff to quickly assess pets for emergencies as well as gain an understanding of the appearance and architecture of the abdominal organs.
