Radiology (X-Rays)

CKVS offers state-of-the-art technology in the form of digital radiography. It is one of our primary tools to diagnose and treat your pet’s illness or injury and helps us provide superior care to our patients. Commonly known as an x-ray it is a pain-free method to get a picture of the internal organs and bones of the body. Digital radiography gives the highest quality images while decreasing the amount of radiation exposure to your pet and our staff. Images can easily and quickly be sent to other veterinarians and specialists. We can perform these in a quick and easy visit to our clinic.

We also perform dental radiography, available as part of a comprehensive oral health assessment during teeth cleaning and dental procedures. Dental radiographs allow assessment of the teeth, the surrounding soft tissue, the bone, and the joints. Did you know that 2/3rds of the pets’ teeth are not visible because they are under the gingiva (gum)? Dental radiographs allow us to find problems needing attention. Without these, up to 75% of significant problems are missed.
