DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING
In some cases, our Veterinarians may need more precise detail of your pet’s internal anatomy. A CT Scan, or digital x-ray, may be required. A CT Scan (computed tomography scan), is very similar to a traditional x-ray. However, it produces images that can be reconstructed into 3D models of the affected area.
"Our images are obtained quickly and have exceptional clarity. We have access to Boarded Radiologists for interpretation." - Dr. Alexander
