Ultrasonography is a widely used, non-invasive, and pain-free diagnostic imaging technique in veterinary care. It works by sending sound waves into a specific area of the body, and the echoes from these waves create real-time moving images of your pet’s internal organs. This procedure is often performed on awake patients with minimal to no sedation, depending on the comfort level of each patient. Ultrasound is a safe and gentle procedure that helps us gather valuable information about your pet’s health without the need for invasive procedures or general anesthesia.

At Atlantic Veterinary Internal Medicine & Oncology, we offer advanced ultrasound services, including abdominal and thoracic (chest) ultrasounds, as well as ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration and biopsy. Our highly skilled specialists perform these procedures to ensure the most accurate diagnoses and most effective treatments.
