Digital Radiology (X-rays)

Our digital x-ray unit produces sharp, high-quality diagnostic images of your pet. This enables our doctors to make a quicker, more accurate diagnosis. Digital x-rays have many advantages for your pet, our hospital, and the environment. Because the image quality of digital x-rays is higher, your pet spends less time on the x-ray table. This means less stress on your pet. Digital x-rays can be manipulated to vary the contrast of the image or magnify areas of concern. Because of this advantage, we can see things on the digital image that a film x-ray wouldn’t allow us to see. Unlike traditional plate x-rays, no film is developed for digital x-rays, so no toxic chemicals are needed to produce the x-rays.
