Ultrasound is a tool that emits sound waves in order to see things inside your pet’s body. You may be familiar with ultrasound to “see” infants before they are born, inside an expectant mother. In the same way, ultrasounds are used in veterinary medicine to “see” inside your pet in order to diagnose problems.
The great thing about ultrasound is that it is completely painless and harmless to your pet. In fact, your pet may be completely unaware that this advanced diagnostic tool is being used.
