Radiology: X-Rays, CAT Scans, Fluoroscopy.... Oh My

VSSF Admin - Friday, May 27, 2011

One of the hardest parts of caring for a pet is not being able to understand their language. When a family member is injured, we are able to quickly assess what treatment would be best. However, it is not always this simple when caring for your pet. Nobody wants to see their dog or cat limping pathetically toward them. Your mind races as you try to decide what to do next. Is it is a broken leg? Did she just land on it funny? Will she need a cast?

Translation Through Radiology 
Our radiology team knows how hard it can be to answer these questions. Thankfully, our professionals can look past the fur and get straight to the problem with X-Ray machines, CAT scans, and the newest technology Fluoroscopy.  This allows for “real-time” pictures, resulting in a quick diagnosis and the ability to pinpoint the exact cause for injury.  Basically, they are pretty cool technological tools that will find the sprain, fracture, and even neurological conditions.




Seeing your pet injured is scary enough as it is. Most of this stress can be alleviated once our Radiology team examines the injury, and delivers the best solution for the best recovery. It may be a quick fix or a necessary surgical procedure, either way the injury or problem will be tended to. Radiology has been able to find health risks before a dangerous development ensues, ensuring a life is saved and your best friend returns home happy and healthy.
