Radiology

The use of radiology in examining and diagnosing your pet's injuries and ailments is an integral tool of our veterinary practice.

With state-of-the-art in-house technology, it is now possible for Melbourne Pet Surgery to rapidly learn details about your pet that were previously inaccessible.

We use non-invasive radiography to assess the health of bones and organs to provide the best possible treatment to our patients, using premium quality radiology and imaging equipment.

We can use x-rays to obtain the information we need to formulate the next step in your pet's medical care. For example, it can be used as a diagnostic tool in instances of trauma, vomiting, limping, coughing and abdominal pain.

The system we use generates images in less than ten seconds, with the results from these x-rays being available immediately.

In most cases, x-rays are taken while your pet is awake. If required, they will be given a light sedation to aid in positioning. This reduces stress in your pet, improving the quality of information.
