What is a Specialized Imaging Center?
A specialized veterinary imaging center is a veterinary hospital or animal clinic that offers advanced diagnostic imaging services beyond what is typically provided by a general practice veterinarian. These centers like Health Veterinary Imaging have specialized equipment and highly trained staff to provide advanced imaging services to pets.
Health Veterinary Imaging can provide a range of diagnostic services to help veterinarians and pet owners diagnose and treat various medical conditions in animals. These include:
- Ultrasound: This imaging technique uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of internal organs and soft tissues. It is often used to diagnose conditions in the abdomen, such as liver disease, gallbladder disease, and bladder tumors.
- Echocardiography: Echocardiography is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses ultrasound waves to visualize the heart and its blood flow
- Radiology (X-ray): This is a standard imaging technique used to create images of bones and soft tissues. It is often used to diagnose conditions such as fractures, arthritis, and pneumonia. Additionally, OFA and PennHIP services are available for your reproductive needs.
- Computed Tomography (CT) scan: This imaging technique uses X-rays and computed technology to create cross-sectional images of the body. CT scans are useful for diagnosing conditions such as cancer, spinal cord injuries, and trauma.
