Echocardiograph Imaging for Your Pet
Echocardiography is a powerful, non-invasive tool that helps evaluate your pet’s heart health. Using ultrasound technology, we can create detailed images of the heart’s structure and function. This imaging helps diagnose heart disease, monitor ongoing conditions, and guide treatment plans. Carolina Veterinary Mobile Radiology, Inc. in Wilmington, NC, provides expert echocardiogram imaging sent to your veterinarian to be interpreted by a boarded veterinary cardiologist.
Have a Vet Referral for an Echocardiogram for Your Pet?
If your veterinarian has recommended an echocardiogram, it’s because they need a closer look at your pet’s heart. Our board-certified veterinary radiologist specializes in advanced heart imaging, offering precise results that help guide treatment decisions. We work closely with veterinarians and pet owners to ensure every pet receives the best possible care. If a congenital heart disease is suspected (born with a potential heart defect), it is recommended that your pet see a boarded cardiologist in person for the exam.
How Does Echocardiography Help My Pet’s Diagnosis?
Echocardiography helps detect heart conditions such as murmurs, valve disease, congenital defects, and cardiomyopathy. By assessing heart size, function, and blood flow, we provide a clear picture of your pet’s cardiovascular health. This allows for early detection of problems and more effective treatment planning. Since echocardiograms are non-invasive and painless, your pet can remain comfortable during the procedure.
Will My Pet Be Stressed During the Echocardiogram?
Most procedures require no sedation, and our gentle approach ensures a low-stress experience for your pet. Your pet is restrained, lying on a padded table on their side, which has been found to be more comfortable, in a low-lit, quiet room. Our gentle approach and expertise help minimize anxiety, making the experience as smooth as possible for both you and your pet.
