Why Pet X-Rays Are Important?

Pet X-rays allow our veterinary team to look beyond the surface of your pet’s body and examine bones, joints, and soft tissues. These detailed images are instrumental in identifying fractures, dislocations, bone infections, and conditions like arthritis. X-rays are also used to detect foreign objects your pet may have ingested or pinpoint the cause of abdominal pain or breathing issues.

The X-Ray Process: What to Expect?

When your pet requires an X-ray, we ensure their comfort and safety throughout the entire process. Depending on the type of X-ray needed, your pet may need to be sedated or anesthetized, especially if they are anxious or in pain. This ensures that we can obtain clear, precise images while minimizing stress for your pet.

Once your pet is comfortable, our veterinary technicians will position them on the X-ray table. The X-ray machine will then take detailed images of the area in question. The procedure is quick and painless, and once the images are captured, they are reviewed by our veterinary team.
