Modern Veterinary X-rays: What You Need to Know

The most important thing to know about X-rays is that they are relatively similar to the one you would receive at a doctor’s office or hospital. While they used to involve film, they are now digital, which gives us faster access to results and less waiting time for you and your pet.

A few of the most common reasons why someone might utilize X-rays include:

  • Pregnancy: X-rays can determine how many puppies or kittens are present in pregnancy and can help see if the mother might have complications during delivery
  • Genetic Problems: Some breeds are much more prone to hip dysplasia, and X-rays can help a veterinarian to see if symptoms are present
  • Accidental Ingestion: If your pet has eaten something he is not supposed to, digital X-rays can locate that item
  • Post-Accident Injury: After an accidental drop, fall, or being hit by a car, these imaging pictures can help see areas where there are broken bones or tissue damage

Will an X-ray Hurt My Pet?

Digital X-rays are incredibly safe for your pet and he will not feel any pain when we need to take the pictures. Also, your animal will be covered with protective gear so that minimal radiation is exposed to your pet.
