What Is Pet Ultrasound?

Pet ultrasound uses sound waves to create detailed images of internal organs and tissues.

It is commonly used to examine:

  • Abdomen and organs
  • Heart function
  • Bladder and kidneys
  • Soft tissue structures
Ultrasound provides more detailed information than X-rays for certain conditions.

Why Ultrasound Is Important

Ultrasound helps detect issues that may not be visible during a physical exam.

It allows us to:

  • Identify abnormalities early
  • Evaluate organ function
  • Detect fluid buildup or masses
  • Guide further diagnostics or treatment

Early detection can help guide diagnostic and treatment decisions.
