Fluoroscopy

As if creating a complete 3-D image of a pet wasn’t enough, our CT machine can provide even more! Fluoroscopy is essentially a real-time radiograph that shoots many images, one after another, in order to create a short video of how your pet’s insides are moving. 

​

We like to use fluoroscopy because it usually does not require sedation and can often be done with birds while they sit on perches or with a reptile who is resting on a warm towel stress free. Fluoroscopy assists our clinicians in diagnosing conditions related to GI mobility, foreign body assessment, tracheal collapsing and lung function.
