Pets are masters at hiding their pain, which can sometimes do more harm than good. This can make it harder for us to monitor our pet’s health and protect them from harmful diseases that could be easily prevented or treated before they cause any serious damage. With the help of our in-house digital X-Ray equipment, we can see right through your pet’s discomfort and accurately diagnose them in minutes. To learn more about our diagnostic tools, call us at 403-457-3911.
How do X-rays work?
X-rays use electromagnetic energy to create images that help us get a clearer picture of what is going on inside your pet’s internal system. With the help of our in-house digital X-ray equipment, we can receive the results faster and walk you through them during your pet’s appointment. X-rays can be used as a diagnostic tool to detect and treat conditions such as:
- Pregnancies
- Heart conditions
- Broken or sprained bones
- Swallowed foreign objects
- Stones and tumours
- Enlarged organs
Are X-rays safe for my pet?
X-rays are non-invasive and generally painless. Our digital technology also helps to reduce your furry friend’s exposure to radiation. Your pet’s comfort is our priority. Our team will make sure your furry loved one is comfortable at all stages. If they are feeling anxious or in any pain, we may sedate them to keep them calm, which will also help us get clearer images and more accurate results.
