Radiography

Navigating diagnostic imaging

Understanding your pet's health concerns can be daunting, especially when diagnostic procedures like radiography are involved. We aim to alleviate your concerns by offering expertly conducted radiography that aids in accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

Detailed examination for bones, organs, and abnormalities

Radiography is recommended for pets requiring detailed examination of bones, internal organs, or suspected abnormalities. It is particularly beneficial when combined with other diagnostic tests such as blood work and ultrasound.

Ensuring comfort and precision

While radiography itself is painless, many pets require sedation or anesthesia to ensure they remain still and comfortable during the procedure. This approach not only minimises stress but also enhances the quality of the images obtained, crucial for a precise diagnosis.

What to expect during the procedure?

Before radiography, we ask that your pet arrives unfed on the morning of admission to facilitate sedation or anesthesia as necessary. Most patients are admitted for the day, ensuring thorough evaluation unless immediate attention is required in emergencies.

Our advanced digital radiographic system allows us to capture detailed images efficiently, which are promptly reviewed by our veterinarians. After the procedure, we will contact you to schedule a consultation where we'll discuss the findings and outline a tailored treatment plan for your pet.

For your convenience, our veterinarians can email radiograph results and provide you with a copy of your pet's images on a CD to keep for reference.

We strive to provide a seamless experience that prioritizes your pet's comfort and delivers peace of mind. If you have any questions or wish to schedule a radiography session, please don't hesitate to contact us at Drovers Vet Hospital.
