Advanced Veterinary Imaging Services

Imaging is a critical tool for diagnosing injuries, internal conditions, and illnesses that aren’t visible externally. At Manlius Veterinary Hospital, we offer a range of imaging options to provide a deeper look inside your pet’s body.

Pet Radiology (Pet X-Rays)

Our pet radiology services use advanced digital X-ray technology to create clear, detailed images quickly and safely. X-rays are invaluable for identifying bone fractures, arthritis, joint problems, foreign bodies, heart and lung conditions, and dental disease. Digital X-rays also allow us to easily share images with board-certified radiologists for expert consultations when needed.

  • RQuick results with minimal stress for your pet
  • RNon-invasive and highly effective diagnostic tool
  • RUsed for both emergency and routine evaluations

Pet Ultrasound

Our pet ultrasound services provide a non-invasive, painless way to visualize internal organs in real time. Abdominal ultrasounds help us diagnose issues involving the liver, kidneys, bladder, intestines, and reproductive organs. Ultrasound is also crucial for evaluating masses, fluid buildup, and heart conditions (echocardiography).

  • RNo radiation exposure
  • ROften does not require sedation (depending on the case)
  • RProvides valuable insights not available through x-rays alone

Ultrasound is particularly useful for detecting soft tissue abnormalities and guiding fine-needle aspirates or biopsies when necessary.
