Ultrasound

Ultrasound is an advanced, state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging technique that is painless and non-invasive. AHOPA uses this diagnostic tool to obtain information about the internal organs of your pet using sound waves. A computer image is generated that helps us to evaluate the internal structure of organs and can show abnormal lesions.

Radiographs (X-Rays)

Radiographs are one of the most common and useful diagnostic tools in medicine, as they are immediately viewable on a computer monitor. The clear, detailed images can be manipulated to get a better view of your pet's bones and internal organs leading to a faster and more accurate diagnosis. If your pet's condition is critical or warrants a referral, we have many excellent specialty veterinarians to whom we can refer you and your pet including dermatologists, dentists, surgeons, ophthalmologists, cardiologists, oncologists, neurologists and internists.
