Ultrasound

Aurora Hills Animal Hospital has a state of the art ultrasound on site!  Our doctors have received extensive training on this machine and the area of ultrasongraphy.

Ultrasound allows a more in depth look at the abdominal organs; they can be viewed in a more dynamic state instead of the flat view of a radiograph.  Tumors on organs can be identified.  Changes in the structure of the organs can be noted.

Most importantly, we no longer have to wait to schedule a radiologist to come to the practice to perform the ultrasound.  We are still maintaining a relationship with our radiologists in the event that a problem is identified that our doctor feels the need to bring in a specialist for consult.
