advanced imaging & Diagnostics

Advanced Imaging Now Available at VESH!

VESH is extremely pleased to announce that we have added advanced imaging (CT) to our facility.

CT is a very useful tool to further evaluate the following conditions:

  • Trauma (thoracic or abdominal trauma, severe dyspnea)
  • Lung disorders (bronchial disease, thromboembolic disease, lung lobe torsion)
  • Tissue abnormalities (masses, metastases detection, vascular abnormalities)
  • Neurologic disorders (IVDD, space occupying masses, neoplasia)
  • Nasal diseases in cats and dogs with chronic nasal discharge (neoplasia, fungal, foreign body)
  • Orthopedic abnormalities (elbow and hip dysplasia, neoplasia, fracture reconstruction)
  • Surgery plan (pinpoint exact location of tumors)

CT scans are interpreted by a board certified radiologist.

We are pleased to be the only facility to bring advanced imaging to the area. If you believe your pet would benefit from a CT scan, speak with your regular veterinarian about making a referral to VESH. For appointments, call us at (413) 665-4931, or fax (413) 665-4934
