We frequently use x-rays to help identify the root of the problem, rule out potential problems, or provide a list of potential reasons when we need to find out what’s wrong with your cat. During a wellness screening, x-rays may also be used to identify potential issues before they develop into significant ones.
X-rays are a useful tool for learning about a pet’s bones, gastrointestinal system, respiratory system, heart, and genitourinary system (bladder, prostate). Radiology is used both alone and in conjunction with other diagnostic methods. The veterinarian must have exceptional expertise to interpret radiographs.
At Cat Care Professionals, we are proud to provide digital radiology (x-rays that are captured digitally rather than on film). With the aid of cutting-edge technology, we can offer you a quicker diagnosis for your pet. Moreover, it emits less radiation than standard x-rays.
Pets must stay motionless during the x-ray process to prevent a fuzzy image. In some circumstances, we might need to sedate your cat or administer a quick-acting anesthetic.
Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions regarding our radiology service or what to expect during your cat’s procedure.
