​
We have the latest digital technology available for field use.
​
RADIOGRAPHY
Taking an x-ray is the main way to assess issues with the bone, teeth and dense tissues. We have a fully wireless digital x-ray machine that enables us to provide rapid diagnosis in the field with processing taking only seconds. We also undertake sales radiographs for thoroughbred sales and pre-purchase examinations.
​
We are fortunate to have close links with many veterinary specialist with whom we work closely with in complicated cases.
​
​
ULTRASONOGRAPHY
Ultrasound is used to assess soft tissue structures. This includes ligaments, tendons, muscles, lungs and abdominal and reproductive organs. It is a valuable doagnostic tool that we can use in the field without need for even a power supply.
​
​
ENDOSCOPY - HAND HELD AND VIDEOENDOSCOPY
Endoscopy or "scoping" is the use of a fibreoptic camera to assess internal structures, namely the nasal passages and airway but also can be used to visualise the bladder, uterus or urethra.
​
We have portable hand held scopes which are very quick and easy to use in most scenarios. We also have a videoscope, which allows us to capture and record images for cases needing continuous assessment or those intended for sale.​​​​​​
