Ultrasound Diagnostic Testing

Ultrasound diagnostic testing regularly assists in the evaluation and treatment of a wide range of pet health conditions or diseases. Its effectiveness is due to its non-invasive nature and its ability to present an image of an object in real-time.

Pet ultrasounds play an important role in our commitment to preventive medicine. All of Bayside’s veterinarians have received extensive continuing education and our veterinary technicians have been certified on utilizing ultrasound. They understand that organs in distress will often visually change long before the issue makes its presence known through blood chemistry.

Using high-frequency sound waves, ultrasonic pictures reflect a live view of a patient’s organs, which could include heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, and more. Combining this modern tool with regular ultrasounds and expert handling, our doctors and staff can map trends and detect the subtle changes in your pet’s most important inner workings. Ultimately, pets and owners that come to Bayside Animal Hospital benefit from an expedited and thorough evaluation.
