91°µÍø

Much of the cutting-edge work carried out at 91°µÍø Small Animal Referrals would not be possible without the specialist expertise and world-class facilities of our Diagnostic Imaging Service. When imaging of any kind is required, cases are assessed using the most up-to-date equipment in the UK.

Specialists within our service are at the forefront of research into all aspects of small animal diagnostic imaging and also at the heart of the clinical work within the Queen Mother Hospital for Animals.

The specialists in the service are constantly helped by a team of four very experienced Radiographers and specialist interns. This help is invaluable in terms of the efficiency of the service and the consistent high quality images obtained.

The service is at the heart of the clinical area within the QMHA so interaction between all the various clinical services and the radiography and radiology teams can occur seamlessly, helping the individualised treatment of each patient.

We have one digital radiography suite, and a combined fluoroscopy / computed radiography suite for specialist techniques, particularly contrast studies. We have access to two ultrasound systems, with a recent addition of a new high-end unit allowing for abdominal, thoracic, musculoskeletal and ocular specialist evaluation of our patients. Our MRI suite uses a 1.5 Tesla magnet as well as 3T system with advanced cardiac imaging capabilities. We have a 320 multi-slice CT scanner, which is one of the most advanced scanners available in any veterinary teaching hospital in the world.
