Our Hudson HDS digital radiology unit is among the few of its kind in Indiana, with computer technology once found only at referral facilities. It offers numerous advantages over traditional x-ray units. Chief among them is the quality of the images produced: digital technology allows sharper clarity and better detail, plus the ability to magnify selected parts of the image, so diagnosis of problems becomes more accurate.
X-ray images are permanently saved electronically, without the risk of damage or decay that film is subject to. Images can also be emailed or messaged to you, or provided on a disc, if you would like copies of your pet’s images.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound is fast becoming a standard of care in veterinary medicine. It serves as an additional diagnostic tool, along with radiology, to look at specific organs and whole sections of the body. Masses, tumors and areas of inflammation can be identified with this non-invasive technology. Our ultrasound unit provides excellent images and the ability to save them permanently.
