VSI is a lifesaver! Their team was prompt, professional, and very thorough in their ultrasound procedure. It was comforting to have such skilled individuals caring for my pet in the comfort of our home.

Frequently asked questions
help_outline What should the client expect when their pet has an ultrasound exam?
The client needs to withhold food for at least 8 hours before the exam, and their pet's ventral abdomen and/or chest will be shaved. It's recommended that clients do not attend the exam as it may distract the sonographer, though exceptions can be discussed.
help_outline How long does the exam take to perform?
Most echocardiograms and abdominal sonograms are completed in approximately 30 to 45 minutes.
help_outline Where should the exam take place in my practice?
The exam should occur in a room that can be darkened without interrupting workflow, such as a spare exam room, surgery room, X-ray room, or treatment area.
help_outline Is sedation or anesthesia needed?
Generally, no sedation is required. However, if the patient is aggressive or overly anxious, injectable sedation may be administered.
help_outline Will my staff need to help hold?
Yes, one staff member with animal restraint experience will be necessary.
help_outline Who interprets the ultrasound findings?
All abnormal echocardiograms are evaluated by a cardiologist, while a DVM sonographer interprets abdominal ultrasounds.
help_outline How soon will I get a written report?
Abdominal ultrasound reports are emailed the day after the exam, while cardiac ultrasound reports are reviewed by a cardiologist and sent the next day.
help_outline What does an ultrasound-guided tru-cut biopsy entail?
The pet is placed under light anesthesia or heavy sedation for about 10 minutes while the biopsy is performed with simultaneous visualization.
help_outline What does a fine needle aspirate (FNA) entail?
An FNA is often done with a 22g needle, usually without sedation, and typically requires confirmation of a normal platelet count before the procedure.
help_outline When should I request an FNA vs. tru-cut biopsy?
FNAs are suitable for sampling suspected masses or fluid, while tru-cut biopsies are used when a larger tissue sample is necessary for diagnosis.
