Detailed Insights
Abdominal Ultrasounds provide detailed insight on what’s going on in your pet’s body. Using high frequency sound waves, your Veterinarian can see things like organs, blood flow and more. When a pet is receiving an ultrasound at NSFP, we make sure your pet is in a low stress environment. Noise is minimized and pets are placed in a padded trough.
Quick Diagnosis of Conditions or Injuries
Various conditions or injuries can be diagnosed using an abdominal ultrasound, including tumors, cysts, internal bleeding, and other problems. Abdominal ultrasound can also detect heart, lung, liver, kidney, and digestive conditions. Luckily, the abdominal ultrasound displays quick and clear results, so there’s minimal wait time before understanding your pet’s condition and the best way to treat it.
We understand that some patients may be nervous to be at the vet, and slight sedation will be provided if deemed appropriate. We strive to provide maximum comfort and relaxation for your pet during an ultrasound by placing your pet in a padded trough, and minimizing noise and foot traffic.
