Computed Tomography (CT)
At Barrington Square Animal Hospital, we understand the importance of accurate diagnostics in ensuring the health and well-being of your beloved pets. That’s why we’re proud to offer state-of-the-art CT scan services, providing comprehensive imaging solutions to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of various medical conditions.
Why Choose Our CT Scan Service?
Advanced Technology: Our CT scan equipment is cutting-edge, allowing for high-resolution imaging that provides detailed insights into your pet’s internal structures. This advanced technology enables our veterinary team to identify even the smallest abnormalities with precision.
Comprehensive Diagnostics: CT scans are invaluable tools for diagnosing a wide range of medical conditions, including neurological disorders, orthopedic injuries, and internal organ abnormalities. By utilizing CT imaging, our veterinary team can accurately assess your pet’s condition and develop personalized treatment plans tailored to their specific needs.
Minimally Invasive: Unlike some diagnostic procedures that may require invasive techniques, CT scans are non-invasive and typically well-tolerated by pets under anesthesia. This means minimal discomfort for your furry friend during the scanning process, ensuring a stress-free experience for both you and your pet.
Fast Results: We understand that prompt diagnosis is essential for effective treatment. With our in-house CT scan service, you can expect fast turnaround times for results, allowing our veterinary team to promptly initiate appropriate treatment measures and provide you with peace of mind.
When to Consider a CT Scan for Your Pet:
Suspected Neurological Disorders: If your pet is exhibiting symptoms such as seizures, paralysis, or unexplained changes in behavior, a CT scan can help identify underlying neurological issues.
Orthopedic Injuries: CT imaging is highly effective in evaluating complex bone fractures, joint abnormalities, and soft tissue injuries, enabling precise treatment planning for orthopedic conditions.
Internal Organ Evaluation: For pets experiencing unexplained symptoms such as persistent vomiting, weight loss, or abdominal pain, a CT scan can provide detailed insights into the health of internal organs such as the liver, kidneys, and intestines.
Sometimes a CT scan will tell you surgery is not an option and palliative care is the best way to proceed. Other times, it allows you to carefully plan a surgery for maximum results with no surprises. Our hope is this will help us further refine the cases and end up with a path to treatment in which client/doctor and patient has the best outcome.
