Does my veterinarian conduct the cat diagnostic imaging or does a veterinary radiologist?

Most of the diagnostic imaging, like x-rays and ultrasound or echocardiogram, we do right here in our clinic. Our certified veterinary assistants and technicians do those procedures themselves. We are directly involved in that procedure. They take the images, and then we interpret or evaluate them. There are veterinary radiologists available, but we would use them by sending images to them to be read. You wouldn't necessarily make an appointment directly with them to have your pet x-rayed or have an ultrasound done as you might in human medicine. It's not segmented like human medicine, where if you need blood work, so you should go here. If you need an MRI, you go there. We do it all.
