Both x-rays and ultrasound
can detect or confirm many internal diseases such as:
Soft tissue disease
Hip displasia
Chest and abdominal disease
Bone fractures
Objects in the stomach or intestine
Obstruction in the urinary or intestinal tract
Ultrasound enables us to see organs
as they function — like a movie — as opposed to a
radiograph, which is like a still photo.
