Veterinary Radiology in Henderson, NV

At Canyon Ridge Animal Hospital, we utilize advanced veterinary diagnostic imaging to detect internal diseases and injuries in pets. Our state-of-the-art radiology services, operated by our skilled team of veterinarians, ensure the highest quality of care for our patients in Henderson, NV.

What is Veterinary Radiology?

Radiographs, commonly known as X-rays, use electromagnetic radiation directed towards the body to create images of internal structures. This non-invasive diagnostic tool is essential for identifying a wide range of health issues in pets, including:

  • Skeletal Fractures: Detecting broken bones and joint issues.
  • Soft Tissue Damage: Identifying injuries to muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
  • Foreign Bodies: Locating objects ingested by pets.
  • Dental Disease: Assessing tooth and gum health.

When Does Your Pet Need Radiology?

Your pet may require radiology for various reasons, including:

  • Injury Assessment: To determine the extent of injuries from accidents or trauma.
  • Chronic Pain: To identify the underlying causes of persistent pain or discomfort.
  • Pre-Surgical Evaluation: To plan and prepare for surgical procedures.
  • Unexplained Symptoms: To investigate causes of symptoms such as limping, swelling, or internal discomfort.
  • Dental Check-Ups: To evaluate dental health and diagnose dental diseases.

Comprehensive Radiology Services

At Canyon Ridge Animal Hospital, we offer a full range of radiology services to meet your pet’s diagnostic needs:

  • Radiographs (X-Rays): Detailed imaging for assessing bones, joints, and internal organs.
  • Ultrasounds: Non-invasive imaging to examine soft tissues and internal organs.
  • Orthopedic Radiographs: Specialized imaging for detailed evaluation of bones and joints.
  • Contrast Studies: Advanced imaging techniques to enhance the visibility of specific structures or fluids.

Safety and Comfort During Imaging

Orthopedic radiographs and contrast studies require pets to remain completely still to obtain accurate results. In most cases, sedation is necessary to ensure your pet’s comfort and the quality of the images. Some specialized procedures may also require anesthesia. The duration of sedation or anesthesia is usually short, and patient recovery is swift. Our team closely monitors your pet while they are under sedation or anesthesia to ensure their safety and well-being.
