Our services
Helping veterinarians answer important clinical questions with dependable, high-quality ultrasound and echocardiography performed directly in their practice.
Abdominal Ultrasound
Comprehensive abdominal ultrasound examinations performed at your veterinary practice, with imaging tailored to the patient's history and clinical concerns.
Cardiac Ultrasound
Echocardiographic examinations to evaluate cardiac structure and function and provide additional information to support clinical decision-making. All echocardiograms are interpreted by a board-certified veterinary cardiologist.
Ultrasound-Guided
Fine-Needle Aspiration
When clinically indicated, ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) may be performed to obtain diagnostic samples from selected lesions or organs. Samples are provided to the referring veterinarian immediately following collection for submission to their preferred pathology service for interpretation.
Ultrasound Guided Centesis
When appropriate, ultrasound-guided centesis safely and accurately removes fluid from the chest or abdomen while minimizing risk to surrounding structures. It can improve patient comfort and provide a diagnostic sample to help determine the underlying cause of the effusion.

Abdominal ultrasound examinations are interpreted by Dr. Carrie Strickland, with interpretation by a board-certified veterinary radiologist available upon request. All echocardiograms are interpreted by a board-certified veterinary cardiologist.
