Our state-of-the-art digital X-ray machine captures crystal-clear images in seconds, reducing your pet’s radiation exposure and eliminating the long wait times of traditional film X-rays. This speed is crucial in emergencies, where every minute matters.

Digital X-rays also allow:

  • Immediate review on-screen with you in the exam room

  • Enhanced image detail to catch subtle issues

  • Instant sharing with specialists for second opinions

  • Easy storage for future comparisons during follow-up care

Our emergency vets also have access to a board-certified radiologist who can help confirm a treatment plan. From detecting fractures and foreign objects to evaluating the chest and abdomen, digital X-rays remain one of our most valuable tools in emergency medicine.
