3 Benefits of Pet X-Ray Imaging

Each year, x-ray imaging helps prevent health complications and improves the quality of life of countless pets. As such, it's crucial that you understand the capabilities of x-ray imaging and how it can benefit your pet. Our knowledgeable and friendly veterinary team is here to break down what the procedure entails and why it's beneficial for a host of health situations, and how our mobile services build on those benefits. Some of the benefits of our Central Houston mobile veterinary radiographs include:

Improving Convenience: It can be challenging for pet owners to set aside the time out of their schedule to take their beloved companions to veterinary appointments. As a fully mobile veterinary practice, we're able to bring our staff and equipment to your home without you having to load up your car with pets and children.
Increasing the Accuracy of Diagnoses: Just like humans, dogs and cats can deal with health problems that can't be detected without advanced equipment. Our pet x-ray technology allows us to accurately diagnose fractures, tumors, and foreign objects. By having a precise understanding of your pet's condition, our veterinarian can create a more effective treatment plan.
Reducing Result Times: One of the most significant benefits of our x-ray imaging services is how quickly we can produce images. Typically, we can receive the images from your pet's mobile appointment within 24 hours of our visit. This can prove crucial for time-sensitive health situations like growing masses or foreign objects that have moved.

What To Expect During an Appointment

On the day of your pet's appointment, our veterinary team will drive out to your home. All the equipment that we need is in our vehicle, and, like a mobile pet groomer, we'll have you bring your pet into our van for the exam. One of our veterinary staff will gently restrain your pet as we use our veterinary radiograph technology to take the images we need. You can rest assured that we regularly work with patients of all temperaments and use fear-free techniques to hold them steady. The entire process is painless and takes around 10 minutes to complete.

Once we've taken the images of your pet, our team will send them to a trusted local radiologist. From there, they'll develop the images within 24 hours. When our office finally receives them, we'll contact you to use the results to create your pet's personalized treatment plan. For example, if we determine that your pet swallowed a foreign object that can't be passed naturally, we may recommend surgical intervention. Depending on the diagnosis, you may receive further treatment from our vets, or we can refer you to a trusted specialist for more advance care needs. We're also more than happy to break down each recommended service and explain the reasoning behind them.

Pet X-Rays FAQs

It's normal to have questions about our Central Houston veterinary pet x-ray services. That's why our friendly and knowledgeable staff is here to give you the information you need to make confident decisions on behalf of your pet. Some of the most frequently asked questions about our pet x-ray services include:

Does my pet need to be sedated to take x-ray images?

Not at all. Most pets only need to be restrained for our veterinary team to take x-ray images. Most appointments can be finished in less than 10 minutes, which helps minimize your pet's stress.

Will my pet be exposed to radiation?

Yes. However, x-ray images only briefly expose your pet to minimal levels of radiation that are safe for young and senior pets alike.

Do I need to prepare my pet for x-ray imaging?

No. The quick and painless nature of x-rays means that you don't have to prepare your pet before their appointment.
