Frequently Asked Questions

Veterinary ultrasound is a diagnostic imaging technique that uses high-frequency ultrasound waves to obtain real-time images of your pet's internal organs and tissues. It is a completely safe, painless, and non-invasive exploration that does not use ionizing radiation.

Your veterinarian may recommend an ultrasound in various situations: if your pet has persistent vomiting or diarrhea, unexplained weight loss, increased abdominal volume, breathing difficulty, chronic cough, or the presence of palpable masses.

For abdominal ultrasound, we do recommend fasting from solids for at least 6-8 hours before the examination in adult dogs, and 4-6 hours in adult cats. This significantly improves image quality.
