Veterinary diagnostic imaging is an essential tool in a veterinarian’s toolkit for comprehensive pet health care. At the Cat Hospital of Tucson, our specialized cat imaging services include digital radiographs, ultrasound, and CT scans, all of which are used to collect detailed information on your feline companion’s health and provide the highest standard of veterinary care.
Most imaging procedures at our Tucson animal hospital are non-invasive and painless, like radiographs and ultrasound. However, some cats may require gentle sedation to ensure their comfort. In addition, certain advanced imaging techniques, like a CT scan, may require anesthesia. Our experienced local veterinarians use these diagnostic images to gather critical information about your cat’s condition, helping them develop effective medical and surgical treatment plans tailored specifically for your feline friend.
Our Comprehensive Imaging Services Include:
- Radiographs (X-rays): Essential for diagnosing fractures, arthritis, and obstructions in cats. Our digital radiography provides clearer images with less radiation exposure at our Tucson veterinary clinic.
- Abdominal Ultrasounds: Non-invasive evaluation of internal organs, allowing our veterinary team to assess your cat’s liver, kidneys, intestines, and other vital structures without stress or discomfort.
- Echocardiograms: Specialized ultrasound for heart health assessment, crucial for diagnosing and monitoring feline cardiac conditions with precision and care.
- CT Scans: Advanced technology provides detailed 3D imaging for complex cases, offering our veterinarians the most comprehensive view of your cat’s anatomy for precise diagnosis.
Our animal care facility partners with mobile veterinary specialists to provide advanced imaging services, and all results are interpreted by board-certified veterinary radiologists to ensure the most accurate diagnoses for your beloved cat. This collaborative approach allows us to deliver exceptional pet health services right here in Tucson.
