With ultrasound technology, we can examine your pet’s heart, liver, kidneys, bladder, and other organs in real time. Whether we’re investigating a suspicious mass or checking on heart function, this imaging helps us make informed decisions without causing discomfort. Most pets tolerate it well, and many don’t even need sedation.
Echocardiograms are a special type of ultrasound for pets with heart concerns. Our veterinarians use them to assess heart size, valve function, and blood flow. This amazing technology even allows them to observe the heart as it beats. Abdominal ultrasounds help us spot issues like stones, masses, or organ enlargement that might not show up on X-rays. We may also perform ultrasounds to monitor pregnancies.
