Imaging Insights: A Radiologists Take on Choosing the Best Imaging Modality for Your Patient
VetFolio Voice - A podcast by Powered by the NAVC - Thursdays
Categories:
The best imaging modality for veterinary patients depends on the issue being evaluated and the patient’s needs. In this episode of the VetFolio Voice podcast, we delve into the types of imaging modalities available to veterinary patients, such as radiographs, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). While radiographs and ultrasound tend to be more common and accessible in private practice, CT is becoming more readily available. We explore sampling, including ultrasound guided sampling vs CT guided sampling, and discuss when MRI would be indicated over CT. Learn about the strengths and limitations of each modality, as well as common misperceptions about each.
