Radiology

                                                Digital Radiology

   Atwood animal hospital strives to provide the best possible care for all of our patients. With that in mind we provide radiology services. This is our digital radiology unit. We no longer need to use harsh chemicals to develop the x rays like we used to. Now the radiographs are much more diagnostic, and the pictures show incredible detail. This helps our doctors a great deal when studying the films for abnormalties. After an x ray is taken they are viewed on the large computer screen, where they can be lightened, darkened rotated etc. We are also able to make a copy onto a disk for the client to take home for their records, or to take to an emergency hospital if needed.
