Digital Radiography (X-Rays) for Cats & Dogs

Digital X-rays are one of the most common tools in veterinary medicine. Our animal hospital uses state-of-the-art digital radiography to evaluate your pet’s bones, lungs, heart, and abdomen.

Compared to traditional film, digital X-rays produce sharper images instantly and reduce radiation exposure for your pet. This efficiency allows our veterinarians to review results quickly, share them electronically when needed, and move forward with an informed treatment plan.

X-rays are often used to help diagnose:

  • Fractures or bone injuries

  • Arthritis or joint issues

  • Bladder stones or intestinal blockages

  • Lung and heart conditions

  • Masses and tumors

  • Dental problems and oral disease

Ultrasound Imaging for Pets

Ultrasound provides a detailed, real-time view of your pet’s internal organs using sound waves instead of radiation. It’s a safe, noninvasive method to evaluate soft tissues and monitor changes within the body.

Ultrasound can help our team examine:

  • The liver, kidneys, and spleen

  • The bladder and gastrointestinal tract

  • Pregnancies and reproductive organs

  • Fluid accumulation or tumors

  • Heart and circulatory system flow

Because ultrasound gives a dynamic image, it’s especially valuable for evaluating how organs function in real time. This allows our veterinarians to gather detailed information that complements X-rays and other diagnostic tests.

Imaging Performed by Board-Certified Specialists

To ensure your pet receives the highest level of expertise, Community Veterinary Hospital partners with board-certified specialists who visit our animal hospital to perform advanced imaging studies.

Echocardiograms

Echocardiograms are performed by a board-certified cardiologist to assess heart structure and function. This test helps identify cardiac conditions such as murmurs, valve disease, or congestive heart failure.

Ultrasounds

Abdominal and diagnostic ultrasounds are performed by a board-certified radiologist, providing detailed evaluations of internal organs and soft tissue structures.

Having these specialists come directly to our hospital means your pet benefits from their expertise without the added stress (or expense) of traveling to a specialty facility. Our veterinarians and specialists work closely together to interpret results and develop the most effective treatment plan for your pet.
