Ultrasound Services for Dogs and Cats

At Peak Veterinary Hospital, we’re committed to providing the most accurate diagnostics possible for your dog or cat. That’s why we offer advanced veterinary ultrasound services, performed exclusively by a board-certified veterinary radiologist. This ensures your pet receives the highest level of expertise in both imaging and interpretation.

When Your Pet May Need an Ultrasound
  • Unexplained weight loss
  • Vomiting or diarrhea
  • Changes in urination or thirst
  • Abnormal bloodwork results
  • Palpable abdominal masses
  • Heart murmurs or suspected heart disease

A board-certified veterinary radiologist has undergone years of additional training in advanced imaging and is an expert at detecting subtle abnormalities.
At Peak Veterinary Hospital:

  • All ultrasounds are performed and interpreted by a boarded radiologist—not a general practitioner.
  • Results are precise, detailed, and available quickly.
  • This expertise allows for more accurate diagnoses and better treatment planning.
  1. Initial Exam – We perform a thorough physical exam and discuss your pet’s symptoms.
  2. On-Site Imaging – On a scheduled day, the boarded radiologist conducts the ultrasound in our hospital for convenience and reduced stress.
  3. Expert Interpretation – The radiologist provides a detailed written report with images.
  4. Treatment Planning – Our veterinarians review the results with you and recommend next steps.
  • Excellent visualization of soft tissues
  • Real-time movement of organs and blood flow
  • Can guide needle biopsies for definitive diagnosis
