Why the X-rays are used during Examination

X-rays provide valuable information about a pet’s bones, gastrointestinal tract (stomach, intestines, colon), respiratory tract (lungs), heart, and genitourinary system (bladder, prostate). We use radiology alone or in conjunction with other diagnostic tools. Interpretation of radiographs requires great skill on the part of the veterinarian.

Radiology Services Offered

Affinity Animal Veterinary Hospital is a full-service animal hospital and provides complete radiology services. We are proud to offer digital radiology (x-rays) services that are captured digitally rather than on film. This state-of-the-art technology allows us to provide you with a quicker diagnosis for your pet.  The Plus, it uses less radiation than traditional x-rays.

To avoid a blurry image, pets need to remain completely still while an x-ray is taken. In some cases, we may need to sedate your pet or use short-acting general anesthesia.

Our veterinary hospital provides the radiology services to the following pets:

✔ Dogs 
✔ Cats
✔ Rabbits

Please feel free to contact us if your furry friend needs any additional diagnosis to identify the health issues.
