More commonly called a Veterinary CT or CAT scan, this modality allows us to see soft tissue and bones with incredible detail. In fact, we can quickly and non-invasively identify internal structures and see their shape, size, density and texture. For instance, if a tumour is found, the CT scan can determine the exact size and location. This is critical for a surgeon to know so that an appropriate treatment plan can be formulated.
MRI stands for “magnetic resonance imaging”. Unlike a traditional radiographic procedure or CT scan, the Veterinary MRI does not use ionizing radiation so there is no harm to the pet undergoing the procedure. Instead, it uses magnetic fields and radio waves to form an image of the body part being scanned. The technology is therefore considered less invasive than traditional radiography, which uses potentially harmful x-rays to make images of the body.
Northwest Referrals are dedicated to optimising patient outcomes, we have assembled a surgical team that works to provide the best possible care for your pet. Our veterinary surgeons work together to determine the least invasive and most effective procedures. Our surgeons perform a variety of minimally invasive techniques whenever possible to promote rapid diagnosis, repair, healing and to minimise patient discomfort.
We offer a fixed price solution for all of our procedures from imaging to Neurosurgery. Please contact us for a quote or more details.
