Advanced ultrasound imaging offers safe insight into your pet’s health
Ultrasound technology allows us to view your pet’s internal organs in real-time without surgery or sedation. At Shallowford Animal Hospital, we use advanced ultrasound technology, including POCUS Fast Scan, to diagnose a variety of medical conditions in dogs and cats. This non-invasive diagnostic tool helps us evaluate organ structure and function, detect abnormalities, and guide treatment decisions. If your dog or cat needs an ultrasound in Marietta, you’re in the right place.

When We Recommend Ultrasound

We recommend ultrasound imaging when physical examination findings or other diagnostic tests suggest potential problems with your pet’s internal organs. Ultrasound excels at visualizing soft tissues like the liver, kidneys, spleen, bladder, heart, and reproductive organs. We use this technology to investigate symptoms like vomiting, abdominal pain, abnormal blood work results, heart murmurs, and suspected masses.

POCUS (Point-of-Care Ultrasound) FAST (Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma) Scan allows us to quickly assess pets with urgent conditions. This focused examination rapidly detects life-threatening problems like internal bleeding or fluid accumulation, helping us make treatment decisions in emergency situations.

The Ultrasound Procedure

Clear, real-time insight into your pet’s internal health

Ultrasound examinations are painless and non-invasive, and pets generally tolerate the procedure well without sedation. We position your pet comfortably and apply gel to the area being examined to help the ultrasound probe make good contact with the skin and transmit sound waves effectively. We may use sedation if your pet is in pain or unable to keep still during the exam.

As we move the probe across your pet’s body, sound waves create real-time images on a monitor. We can evaluate organ size, shape, texture, and any abnormal structures like masses, cysts, or stones. With this technology, we can even observe the heart as it beats.
