Radiograph (X-ray) Services for Small & Large Animals

At Moreton Bay Vets, we understand that accurate diagnosis is key to providing the best care for your pets. That's why we offer advanced radiograph (X-ray) services for both small and large animals. With the help of our state-of-the-art equipment and expert Veterinary team, we are able to provide clear, high-quality images that can help identify a wide range of conditions and health issues.

What We Can Diagnose with X-Rays for Small Animals:

X-rays are an invaluable diagnostic tool for small animals like dogs, cats and other pets. Some of the common conditions we can diagnose using X-rays include:

• Bone fractures & joint injuries: X-rays allow us to detect fractures, dislocations, and arthritis in bones and joints.
• Abdominal issues: We can identify foreign objects, gastrointestinal blockages, and signs of organ disease or injury.
• Heart & lung conditions: X-rays can help identify heart enlargement, fluid in the lungs, and other signs of respiratory issues.
• Dental problems: X-rays are crucial for examining tooth roots, bone structure, and detecting abscesses or other oral health concerns.
• Tumors or masses: X-rays help in identifying abnormal growths or masses within the body.

What We Can Diagnose with X-Rays for Large Animals:

For larger animals such as horses, cattle, and other livestock, radiographs are equally important in assessing their health. We use X-rays to detect and diagnose:

• Limb and joint issues: X-rays help identify fractures, joint degeneration, and issues such as laminitis in hooves.
• Spinal conditions: We can assess vertebral issues and injuries, as well as signs of arthritis or spinal deformities.
• Abdominal and thoracic issues: X-rays can help detect internal organ abnormalities, including signs of digestive problems, respiratory conditions, or trauma.
• Foreign objects or impactions: In large animals, X-rays can detect foreign bodies or digestive blockages that may require surgical intervention.
• Hoof and bone conditions: Regular X-rays are often used to monitor the health of hooves and bones, particularly in horses.
