It assesses the heart's chambers, verifies the quality of heart muscle contractility and identifies abnormalities in the heart's valves. The test is performed without anesthesia on cooperative animals. It is totally painless.     <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Echocardiography is indicated for the detection of malformations or heart disease in high-risk breeds, such as the Cavalier King Charles or the Main Coon cat. This examination can be coupled with an electrocardiogram, and different examination times follow one another: BD, color Doppler, pulsed Doppler, ... <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-left-line has-custom-secondaire-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-8cdda2d553ed9447b8709d03f95f1522 tw-block-animation tw-animation-fade-in-up\">Abdominal ultrasound  <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This examination has numerous indications in veterinary medicine. It is performed without anesthesia on most animals. Samples may sometimes be taken, such as biopsies of organs, abdominal masses or fluids. Light, reversible sedation is usually required to perform these particular procedures without stress or pain.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-left-line has-custom-secondaire-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-da349a9995fbb0588c27830815ff437a tw-block-animation tw-animation-fade-in-up\">Ultrasound-guided biopsy  <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For certain conditions, it is necessary to recover a tissue sample from the suspected organ for histological analysis. This tissue sample (biopsy) can be taken without surgery. In this case, the sample is taken under ultrasound control, through the skin, simply by puncture, without a large opening. This procedure is less invasive than surgical removal, but is unfortunately not always possible.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-left-line has-custom-secondaire-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-b66e047a2dce72d6c142729b77f3a44e tw-block-animation tw-animation-fade-in-up\">Ocular ultrasound  <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" src=\"https:\/\/www.agoravet.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dsc_5495-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4149\" style=\"width:580px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.agoravet.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dsc_5495-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.agoravet.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dsc_5495-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.agoravet.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dsc_5495-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.agoravet.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dsc_5495-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.agoravet.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dsc_5495.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Ocular ultrasound is one of the complementary examinations required in ophthalmology. Using a high-frequency probe, it provides a precise, high-quality examination of ocular structures, even in the case of opacities. Only a local anaesthetic is required.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-left-line has-custom-secondaire-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-49c593ae21f87a6ce3e999b26dfd9aa0\">Muscle and tendon ultrasound<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Muscle and tendon lesions are sometimes difficult to detect. Ultrasound examination of these structures can determine the presence of inflammation, tears or ruptures. This examination is very useful in cases of suspected bicipital tendinitis (tendinitis of the biceps brachii tendon), for example.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading tw-block-animation tw-animation-scale-in\">How can I have an ultrasound performed at the AgoraVet clinic in Strasbourg?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your veterinarian suggests an ultrasound examination but does not have the necessary equipment. He can then refer you to the AgoraVet- clinic's Internal Medicine department.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It then issues a liaison document, essential for transmitting information and specifying expectations in terms of care.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultrasound examinations are by appointment only and on presentation of the liaison document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At your veterinarian's request, and in certain circumstances, an ultrasound examination of your pet can be carried out directly in your veterinarian's clinic. Don't hesitate to ask your veterinarian about this.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"681\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.agoravet.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dsc_5464-2-681x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4272\" style=\"width:318px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.agoravet.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dsc_5464-2-681x1024.jpg 681w, https:\/\/www.agoravet.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dsc_5464-2-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.agoravet.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dsc_5464-2-768x1155.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.agoravet.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dsc_5464-2-1022x1536.jpg 1022w, https:\/\/www.agoravet.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dsc_5464-2.jpg 1277w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 681px) 100vw, 681px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To find out more about ultrasound consultations, please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.agoravet.fr\/nos-services\/medecine-interne\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.agoravet.fr\/nos-services\/medecine-interne\/\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ultrasound is a non-invasive medical imaging examination commonly used in veterinary medicine.
