ULTRASOUNDS

DIAGNOSTIC ULTRASOUNDS

An ultrasound is a highly useful tool when evaluating heart conditions, internal organs, cysts and tumors, and diagnosing pregnancy.

A veterinary ultrasound is a highly useful tool when evaluating heart conditions. It can detect alterations in abdominal organs and assist in the recognition of any cysts and tumors that may be present. Many times, x-rays will be utilized in combination with an ultrasound as they reveal the size, dimension, and position of the organ An ultrasound is usually recommended when our doctors find abnormalities on bloodwork or x-rays, or to monitor a disease process.

Ultrasound equipment directs a narrow beam of high frequency sound waves into the area of interest. The sound waves either transmit through, reflect, or absorb in the tissues that they encounter. Any ultrasound waves that are reflected will return as echoes and convert into an image that is displayed on the monitor, giving a 2-dimensional image of the tissues under examination. With the ability to obtain real time information, outcomes can often be determined immediately.

The exam is completely painless. Light sedation may be used to help the patient lie comfortably while the scan is being performed. Your pet may need to be shaved around the area of interest, as veterinary ultrasound images are of better quality if they have complete contact with the skin

Our doctors utilize the services of Dr. Michael Matz, a board-certified internal medicine specialist for pets who need ultrasound.  He can perform abdominal ultrasound and echocardiogram through his mobile practice, in the comfort of our clinic. All scheduling arrangements will be made by our clinic staff. To learn more about Dr. Matz please visit http://www.mmatzdvm.com/
