Pet Ultrasound in Payson, UT
Veterinary ultrasound is a valuable tool for evaluating internal organs and diagnosing medical conditions in pets. At Payson Family Pet Hospital, we use ultrasound to assess organ health, detect abnormalities, and monitor pregnancies. This non-invasive imaging technique allows us to visualize soft tissues in real-time, helping our veterinarians make informed treatment recommendations.
When Is a Pet Ultrasound Needed?
Pet ultrasound is used to diagnose and monitor a variety of health conditions, including:
- Abdominal Issues: Detects abnormalities in the liver, kidneys, spleen, and intestines.
- Heart Conditions: Assesses heart function and detects irregularities.
- Pregnancy Monitoring: Confirms pregnancies and tracks fetal development.
- Cysts and Tumors: Identifies growths that may require further evaluation.
- Fluid Accumulation: Detects excess fluid in the chest or abdomen.
Ultrasound is often performed alongside digital X-rays to provide a comprehensive view of your pet’s internal health. While X-rays show the size and structure of organs, ultrasounds provide detailed images of soft tissue and blood flow. Schedule an appointment today!
