Are The Procedures Painful?
Veterinary X-Rays and Veterinary Ultrasound are painless procedures, but some pets might be particularly anxious or stressed and will require sedation, especially if the images needed require an uncomfortable position.
Veterinary Ultrasound in detail
As we mentioned above the procedure is done in real time for a better viewing of your pet’s organs from different angles. Through the ultrasound, the organs functioning, and blood flow will be observed, and the doctor/technician will be able to determine if there are any anomalies or malfunctioning. The procedure takes 30 to 60 minutes., where a small probe that radiates digital sound waves is used to scan your pet’s internal organs, the images will be digitally saved for further analysis. The Veterinary Ultrasound is great for determining the cause of a problem and the reason why your pet is in pain.
Veterinary X-rays in Detail
For this procedure, the technician positions the x-ray machine only on the affected area of the pet’s body. The radiation emitted by the machine is completely safe for your pet, and as these are static images the procedure timing is considerably shorter.
As in the veterinary ultrasound, the veterinary X-rays are digitally saved for further examinations
