Radiography is an imaging technique that is frequently used in veterinary medicine. Digital radiography provides high definition x-ray images allowing rapid and accurate diagnosis. Digital radiographs are available immediately, and are now digitally archived for convenient review. Images can be magnified and enhanced for optimal viewing and computerized surgical planning. Because developing chemicals and film are not required for digital radiography, it is also better for the environment.

How It Works Radiography can be used to evaluate bones, heart, lungs, and organs in the abdomen. This type of imaging can be very useful in diagnosing orthopedic injuries, bladder stones, and abnormalities in the heart and lungs, as well as intestinal blockages and Intervertebral disc disease, with the use of contrast agents.
