Ultrasound
Ultrasound
We at Just Cats Veterinary Clinic know how important it is to get answers quickly and accurately. Diagnostic testing should be easy and readily available to clients without the wait for your more critical cases. We are now able to provide fast and accurate ultrasounds to our feline patients, and referring veterinarian’s patients.
Ultrasound examination permits us to view the internal or inner structures of the kidneys, liver and other abdominal organs, and allows the recognition of cysts and tumors. It is excellent for viewing the interior of hollow organs such as the bladder.
It helps in the diagnosis of a wide array off issues such as feline IBS and lymphoma.
We are able to provide this service and get you results within 1-5 business days of the ultrasound.
Our ultrasounds are done typically with gabapentin given orally 2-3 hours prior. We use mild sedation only if necessary, and our doctors will perform a brief exam to ensure the safety of anesthesia. We send the ultrasound out for interpretation with a radiologist and the results are reported back to our clients within days.
The ultrasounds are performed by our team consisting of board-certified veterinarian Amanda Kennedy, DVM, DAVBP (Feline), and our amazing veterinary technician, Trish Davis.
Referring veterinarians, our goal is to assist you with your needs, and return your patient and all reports to you quickly. We will perform the ultrasound, and then refer your patient back to you for continued care.
