Radiology - Specialty Vet Services
Radiology encompasses multiple means of making and interpreting diagnostic images. Our team of veterinary specialists is proud to offer a wide variety of these services to the Fort Lauderdale area.
LeadER Animal Specialty Hospital’s commitment to having the latest state-of-the-art equipment paired with the skill and expertise of the radiologist ensures clarity and accuracy in interpretation and diagnosis.
Although standard x-rays are still the backbone of diagnosis, we also offer the following emergency vet radiology services:
- Fluoroscopy – allows the radiologist to see an x-ray picture in real time. This allows for evaluation of organs in motion and gives the ability to pass catheters through blood vessels to perform various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
- Diagnostic ultrasound — allows the radiologist to see inside of organs and to assess finer structures than those identified by x-ray.
- Computed tomography (CAT scans) — a more advanced use of x-rays in which a computer makes a cross sectional image. This modality is very important in neurologic conditions and in identifying many tumors.
