Best Friends Animal Hospital Offers Better Veterinary Care With Pet Ultrasounds


WINNIPEG, Manitoba, May 29, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Veterinarians at this Winnipeg Animal Hospital will soon receive an ultrasound machine specially designed for animals, reports Best Friends Animal Hospital. Ultrasounds allow for safe and accurate pet diagnosis without the need for invasive medical surgery. Improved diagnosis translates into more targeted treatment programs and overall better results for Winnipeg pets.  

Ultrasound is a common, safe, and non-invasive technology used for exploratory purposes so veterinarians can find out what is wrong with an animal without resorting to surgery. Beneficial to animals large and small, it uses high-pitch sound waves to create clear images for the technician. Common concerns include pregnancy, obstructions or damage of vital organs. Ultrasound also can be used to explore the cause of abnormal blood work, bouts of excessive vomiting and diarrhea, unusual weight loss, urinary problems, fluid build-up, cancer diagnosis and monitoring, and to identify specialized care needs for geriatric animals.

 “We are excited to offer ultrasound to our patients,” said Dr. Manjit Sra. “As the newest addition to our state-of-the-art technology, an animal ultrasound machine makes it easier to get an accurate diagnosis and avoid more invasive exploration. Pet owners will have an additional completely safe and effective way to find out what’s ailing their pet and animals won’t have to go through the stress of surgery and recovery simply to ascertain what’s wrong. We’re always looking for proven and more effective methods to help pets and their owners. Ultrasound’s visual feedback is ideal to help owners decide the best course of treatment for their beloved pet and for veterinarians to be able to offer more targeted treatment plans based on the data.”

Dr. Manjit Sra, DVM, a small animal and exotics veterinarian, practices at the Best Friends Animal Hospital serving Winnipeg and the surrounding communities. Patients receive a wide range of veterinary services including medical, surgical, preventative, dental and behavioural services. From routine wellness visits to urgent care needs, Best Friends Animal Hospital veterinarians and staff fully address all concerns with compassion. Pets and their owners can now reduce unnecessary stress with the addition of an animal ultrasound machine at Best Friends Animal Hospital.
