Abdominal Ultrasound

Full abdominal ultrasound scan to assess for underlying abnormalities. Less invasive than surgery, and more accurate than xray. Scan includes the kidneys, liver, spleen, intestinal tract, pancrease, stomach, bladder, and reproductive organs (if present).

Pregnancy Ultrasound

Pregnancy can be detected as early as 20 days post conception, however we recommend that any pregnancy scans be booked at day 30 for increased accuracy. *Note that it can be difficult to accurately count the number of viable fetuses at this early stage.

Individual Organs

We can target our ultrasound to specific areas of the body as needed, such as the urogenital system. Targeted scans can be used to recheck abnormal systems detected previously on full abdominal scans or can be used to take ultrasound guided biopsy or fluid samples.

**Abdominal and Cardiac Ultrasounds can also be performed by Focal Zone mobile ultrasound service - An ultrasound technician travels to our hopsital to perform the procedure and the images are sent to a radiolgoist to read and send a report
**Some patients will require light sedation to complete teh ultrasound procedure; all patients will require some shaving of their fur in order to best image their internal organs
