X-Rays

X-rays, also known as radiographs, allow us to see inside your pet's body without surgery. Digital X-rays use advanced imaging technology to create clear, detailed images of bones, joints, and internal organs.

Digital X-rays are available for immediate review, allowing your vet to assess the images quickly and discuss findings with you. This helps ensure prompt and informed decisions about your pet’s diagnosis and treatment.

X-rays are commonly used to investigate issues such as lameness, suspected injury, unexplained pain, fractures, arthritis, hip dysplasia, and the presence of foreign objects. They provide valuable information that helps your vet make an accurate diagnosis and recommend appropriate treatment.

Hip X-rays are specifically used to assess joint health and diagnose conditions such as hip dysplasia. This type of imaging is particularly useful for dogs and cats exhibiting stiffness, lameness, or mobility issues. With clear imaging, our vets can better understand the underlying cause of your pet's discomfort and create a tailored treatment plan.

The cost of pet X-rays can vary depending on the type of imaging required, the number of views needed, and whether sedation or general aneasthesia is necessary. Due to varying pets and situations, we recommend contacting your local practice to discuss the expected cost for your pet.
