Fluoroscopy

Fluoroscopy is an advanced imaging technique that offers continuous, real-time X-ray visualization during surgical procedures in pets. This technology allows veterinarians to see detailed images of the injured area as they operate, ensuring precise and effective treatment. By providing dynamic images, fluoroscopy helps in the accurate placement of surgical implants, real-time assessment of fracture alignment, and detection of any complications during surgery. This intraoperative imaging tool enhances the accuracy and safety of various surgical interventions, ultimately improving outcomes and reducing recovery times for pets.

Fluoroscopy is a dynamic imaging technique that uses continuous X-ray beams to create real-time images of the internal structures of pets during surgical procedures. This allows veterinarians to visualize the area of interest in detail, making adjustments as needed throughout the surgery.

Fluoroscopy is commonly used in veterinary surgery for:

Orthopedic Surgery: Assisting in the accurate placement of implants such as pins, plates, and screws.
Fracture Repair: Ensuring proper alignment and stabilization of fractured bones.
Joint Procedures: Visualizing joint structures and guiding the removal of loose bodies or other surgical interventions.

Fractures: Real-time imaging ensures precise alignment and stabilization of bone fractures during repair.
Joint Instability: Fluoroscopy helps in visualizing joint movements and guiding the placement of stabilization devices.
Spinal Surgery: Providing detailed views of the spine during corrective surgeries for vertebral fractures or luxations.
