Echocardiogram
An indispensable diagnostic tool for the evaluation of heart health, echocardiograms help our doctors understand the functioning of your feline companion’s heart, which allows them to provide medical recommendations targeted to the specific physiology of your cat. No need to expose your kitty to a stressful, dog-filled specialty hospital; a board-certified veterinary cardiologist performs echocardiograms for our patients regularly in our quiet and peaceful UCVC environment. (Due to COVID-19, this service is temporarily unavailable at UCVC. We will update this section when it is available again. We will refer kitties needing echocardiograms to cardiologists at specialty facilities until echocardiograms are available at UCVC again.)
Ultrasound
Performed by a board-certified radiologist trained in ultrasonographic evaluation, ultrasound diagnostics allow our doctors to identify many concerns without the need for more invasive diagnostics.
Radiology
Our state-of-the-art digital X-ray equipment provides nearly instant results for our doctors, improving the time in which we can deliver quality medical care. Our X-rays are read immediately on-site ("wet read") and then, if necessary, can be reviewed by a board-certified radiologist. Digital Dental Radiology is performed separately in our Dental Suite, as a routine part of every dental procedure.
