Ultrasonography at Willunga and Aldinga Vet
Introducing ultrasound (sonography), an advanced technology that offers a non-invasive and comfortable means of imaging internal organs in veterinary patients. This cutting-edge diagnostic system employs sound waves to detect and digitally reconstruct organs, allowing for detailed examination. Ultrasound is particularly effective in analysing vital structures such as the kidneys, urinary bladder, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, intestinal tract, and the reproductive system.
In certain cases, a mild sedation is commonly administered to ensure optimal ultrasound image quality. Dr Daniel Richmond is our experienced Ultrasonographer.
