Contrast Studies

As an advanced imaging technique used to enhance the visibility of specific organs, tissues, and systems. Types of Contrast Procedures:

Gastrointestinal (GI) Contrast Studies: GI contrast studies involve administering a contrast agent orally or via an enema to highlight the gastrointestinal tract.
Urinary System Contrast Studies: Contrast studies of the urinary system involve the administration of a contrast agent intravenously or directly into the urinary bladder to visualize the kidneys, ureters, and bladder.
Intravenous Pyelogram
Cystography
Urethrography
Angiography: vascular contrast studies involve injecting a contrast agent into the blood vessels to highlight the vascular system.
Myelography: spinal contrast studies (myelography) involve injecting a contrast agent into the spinal canal to highlight the spinal cord and surrounding structures to identify spinal cord compression, herniated discs or tumors.

Ultrasound (US)

Ultrasound uses sound waves to create real-time images of the body’s internal structures

Abdominal US: Assessing abdominal organs, peritoneum, mesentery
Pregnancy Checks: Monitoring fetal development in pregnant animals.
Musculoskeletal US: Evaluate tendon and joint injuries.
Thyroid US: Evaluate for thyroid nodules, masses and parathyroid gland abnormalities.
Thoracic US: Evaluate for cranial mediastinal masses, peripheral lung masses and nodules.
