Ultrasonography

Ultrasound is a valuable tool for diagnostics in veterinary medicine just as in human medicine. This instrument allows us to look at the internal organs of the body to check for normal form and function. Another major benefit is the capability of performing ultrasound guided biopsies. For example, should a small mass be found on the liver, we can use a tiny needle to retrieve a biopsy sample. Without this capability it is necessary to do a much more invasive surgery to obtain the needed tissue biopsy. We consider this instrumentation a necessity for our clients and patients to receive the highest quality veterinary care.

For your convenience, we are proud to have Dr. Lee Yanik, a board certified radiologist, routinely perform ultrasounds at our facility.
