Ultrasound
Sometimes an x-ray may not give us a clear enough view of the inside of your pet’s body; we may want to view the problem from a different perspective to obtain a diagnosis. In this case we can call into our hospital a traveling ultrasonographer.
Many pets tolerate the ultrasound procedure quite well; occasionally a more nervous pet may require a light sedation. If we see something on the ultrasound that is unusual we may choose to take a sample of tissue; to do this a general anesthetic is required. The ultrasound is performed and interpreted by a licensed veterinarian who has a special interest and is experienced in this technology. We will have the results of the ultrasound within minutes of completing the test.

FUNFACT:
Never leave your pet in a parked car, not even if you crack the windows or park in the shade. On a 22’C day, the car temperature can rise above 66’C in minutes. It is extremely dangerous and the number one cause of heatstroke.
