Our facility is equipped with advanced technology, including digital X-rays, ultrasounds, and CT Scan capabilities, allowing us to provide precise diagnoses and tailored treatment plans for pets of all shapes and sizes. Whether it’s detecting health issues early, guiding treatment decisions, or monitoring ongoing conditions, pet imaging at Ridgefield Park Animal Hospital is an integral component of our commitment to providing comprehensive and compassionate veterinary care.
Pet Radiography
Pet radiography, also known as X-rays, is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses electromagnetic radiation to create images of your pet’s internal organs, bones, and tissues. These images can help our veterinarians identify fractures, foreign objects, tumors, and other abnormalities affecting your pet’s health.
Pet Ultrasound
Our advanced ultrasound technology allows us to visualize and evaluate vital organs such as the heart, liver, kidneys, and bladder in real-time, providing invaluable insights into your pet’s well-being. Whether we’re diagnosing underlying medical conditions, monitoring the progression of disease, or guiding treatment plans, our experienced veterinarians and skilled technicians utilize ultrasound as a non-invasive and painless tool to deliver compassionate care tailored to your pet’s specific needs.
Pet CT Scan
Pet CT Scan utilizes advanced imaging technology to provide comprehensive and detailed evaluations of your pet’s internal anatomy. CT (omputed tomography) combines X-ray images taken from multiple angles to generate cross-sectional images, offering precise insights into your pet’s health. This non-invasive procedure is particularly valuable for diagnosing complex medical conditions, detecting abnormalities such as tumors or fractures, and guiding treatment plans with exceptional accuracy. Our skilled veterinary team utilizes CT scans to deliver optimal care for your pet’s individual needs, ensuring thorough evaluations and informed decision-making.
The Benefits of Pet Imaging
Pet imaging offers several benefits for both pets and their owners, including:
- Accurate diagnosis: Unlike physical examinations alone, pet imaging provides veterinarians with detailed insights into your pet’s internal structures. Whether it’s X-rays revealing fractures or ultrasounds detecting organ abnormalities, precise diagnoses lay the groundwork for targeted treatment plans tailored to your pet’s specific needs.
- Non-invasive: This allows for quick and efficient diagnostic evaluations without the need for anesthesia in most cases, promoting a positive experience for both pets and their owners.
- Early Detection of Health Issues: Pet imaging enables early detection of various health issues, often before symptoms manifest. From identifying tumors and internal injuries to pinpointing the underlying cause of chronic conditions, early diagnosis empowers veterinarians to initiate timely treatment and improve outcomes for pets.
- Effective treatment planning: By providing detailed anatomical information, pet imaging serves as a crucial tool for guiding treatment planning and decision-making.
When to Consider Pet Imaging
Pet imaging may be recommended in the following situations:
- Following an injury or trauma
- If your pet is experiencing unexplained pain or discomfort
- To evaluate for suspected fractures, tumors, or foreign objects
- As part of a routine health screening for older pets
