What MRI Helps Diagnose in Pets
MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) uses a powerful magnetic field and radio waves to create high-contrast, cross-sectional images of your pet’s internal structures. Unlike X-rays or ultrasound, MRI excels at showing soft tissues, the brain, the spine, and joints in remarkable detail.
Our MRI technology helps evaluate:
-
Neurological concerns, including seizures, behavior changes, and suspected brain abnormalities
-
Spinal conditions, such as intervertebral disc disease or unexplained back pain
-
Chronic limping or mobility issues, when X-rays and ultrasound don’t provide enough information
-
Suspected tumors or masses in the brain, spine, or soft tissues
-
Inner ear disease, unexplained head tilt, or balance problems
-
Inflammatory or infectious conditions affecting the nervous system
-
Persistent pain, when the cause isn’t immediately clear
