Human-quality CT for pets
Our CT is the first 128 slice human-quality system available for Texas and Utah pets. It’s so fast that many patients don’t require anesthesia to keep them still.
What is CT?
Computed tomography (CT) uses x-rays to produce multiple images of the inside of the body, and provides thin, cross-sectional “slices” for viewing. CT scans provide much more detail than conventional x-rays. Radiologists use this specialized equipment and expertise to diagnose problems such as cancer, abnormalities of blood vessels, trauma, and musculoskeletal disorders. SVI uses a 128 slice Philips CT with 3D modeling capabilities to help you diagnose and plan treatment with confidence. With the first 128 slice scanner for pets in Texas and Utah, our CT is so fast that many orthopedic and screening patients do not require anesthesia. Note that anesthesia is usually required for chest and abdomen imaging.
CT is our specialty and your pet is our primary focus.
When you visit Sage Veterinary Imaging for a CT, your pet will be carefully monitored by a dedicated, experienced staff, and expertly imaged using state-of-the-art equipment. Your pet will be sent back to you with an immediate call to discuss our findings.
We want to help you find a solution and a treatment plan.
You won’t just get images from us, but also a team approach that we refer to as our circle of care, as we work closely with your vet and recognized experts in internal medicine and neurology to help guide treatment options.
