We use the IDEXX Image Vue  DR50  Digital Imaging System

How it works:
  
  • Radiographs (x-rays) are taken.
  • The images are sent to a computer.
  • The computer takes the images and sharpens the detail.
  • The images can then be viewed on a computer screen.
 
What are the benefits of digital radiography?
  • Images can be enlarged 100 times, rotated, and enhanced to bring out even more detail.
  • Sections of the image can be accurately measured using a digital ruler.
  • After viewing, images are permanently stored on the computer hard drive for further use.
  • If a Radiology specialist's opinion or referral is needed, the images can be emailed without any loss of detail.
After viewing digital x-rays, plain film x-rays show incredibly inferior quality.
