At Pine Creek Veterinary Associates, we use ultrasonography, a diagnostic technique that uses ultrasound waves which produce an imaging study that creates a picture of the inside of your pet’s body. Ultrasound waves can generate accurate images of abdominal organs, including the:
- Liver
- Gallbladder
- Spleen
- Kidneys
Ultrasound can also assess fetal health, monitor pregnancy in breeding animals and can help our staff diagnose certain forms of cancer.
As a non-invasive, pain-free method of diagnosing and evaluating common diseases, ultrasound images are produced in real-time and can also be used to evaluate a pet’s heart as it beats. This helps us detect heart abnormalities and defects.
To schedule a consultation or to learn more about our ultrasound services, call us at 570-769-6088.
