Radiology
CARE offers state-of-the-art digital radiography and all radiographs are read by the Board-Certified Radiologists at Vet-Rad. This provides the veterinarians at CARE with the highest quality diagnostic information.
DIGITAL RADIOGRAPHY
Digital radiology may represent the greatest technological advancement in medical imaging over the last decade. The use of radiographic films in x- ray imaging might become obsolete in a few years. An appropriate analogy that is easy to understand is the replacement of typical film cameras with digital cameras. Images can be immediately acquired, deleted, modified, and subsequently sent to a network of computers.
The benefits from digital radiology are enormous. It can make a radiological facility or department filmless. The referring physician can view the requested image on a desktop or a personal computer and often report in just a few minutes after the examination was performed. The images are no longer held in a single location; but can be seen simultaneously by physicians who are kilometers apart. In addition, the patient can have the x-ray images on a compact disk to take to another physician or hospital.
