Radiography

One of the most useful tools a veterinarian has at their disposal when treating animals is the use of radiographs. A radiograph is more commonly known as an x-ray. An x-ray uses radioactive waves to produce pictures of your pet’s internal organs and bony skeleton.

Dr. McHughes uses x-ray to diagnose enlargement of the internal organs, such as liver and heart; pneumonia of the lungs; tumor identification; fractured bony structures; and even foreign object placement. Radiography is useful when an animal cannot tell us where or why it is hurting.

If your pet needs an x-ray for accurate diagnosis, our staff will properly restrain your pet for a clear picture and develop the film. Dr. McHughes will go over the pictures and give you her impression of what your pet is suffering from with you in the exam room during your visit.
