Digital Radiography
We have the ability to digitally take radiographs (x-rays). This enables us to obtain x-rays fast to aid in our diagnoses. X-rays, in many situations, do not require anesthesia and are a low-stress, low-risk way to get more medical information.
EKG
The abbreviation EKG/ECG stands for electrocardiogram. This examines the heart’s electrical waves and impulses. This equipment is used frequently during surgical procedures and to diagnose cardiac problems. Learn more.
Ultrasound
The abdominal organs can be imaged in detail with ultrasound imaging. Ultrasound imaging can help diagnose and stage a wide range of disorders, as well as aid in routine treatments and track disease progression. Ultrasound is a noninvasive, low-stress means of obtaining crucial information in many circumstances, and it rarely necessitates anesthesia.
