Ultrasound
Pet Ultrasounds in Rochester
South Towne Veterinary Hospital offers pet ultrasound exams to provide us with a more thorough understanding of your pet’s current health. An ultrasound exam is a non-invasive way of looking inside your pet’s body (including the liver, kidney, intestines, heart, lungs, and more) without having to perform surgery. The ultrasound machine sends sound waves into the body and listens for the echoes and then the machine uses these echoes to form a picture of the inside of your pet.
Ultrasounds are performed for many reasons, including:
- Abnormal bloodwork
- As a baseline for future exams
- Bladder stones
- Cancer staging
- Chronic infections
- Fluid in the chest or abdomen
- Gastrointestinal obstructions
- Ongoing vomiting and diarrhea
- Pregnancy
- Tumors
- Weight loss
Dr. Gschrey performs ultrasound exams as a diagnostic tool on a referral basis. For more information, please contact our Rochester veterinarian office at (585) 334-1550.
