The veterinary radiology is an essential diagnostic imaging test to evaluate bones, joints, thorax and abdominal cavity in dogs and cats, allowing the rapid and accurate detection of fractures, bone alterations, respiratory problems and other internal pathologies.
At Benivet Benissa we carry out radiological studies as part of the diagnostic process, always integrated with the clinical examination and other complementary tests, in order to obtain a complete and reliable assessment of each patient.

At Benivet BenissaWe have state-of-the-art equipment for digital radiographyThe results are clear and rapid. This facilitates the identification of fractures, respiratory pathologies, digestive disorders, joint diseases, dental problems or even internal tumours.
Radiology is an integral part of our image diagnosis and is usually complemented by the general medicineIt also plays a key role in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, helping to make complete examinations and better clinical decisions. In addition, it plays a key role in veterinary dentistrywhere dental X-rays allow an in-depth evaluation of the bone structure.
At our veterinary clinic in Benissa, we perform X-rays with state-of-the-art digital equipment, designed to guarantee the safety of your pet and offer high resolution images with minimum exposure to radiation.
The process includes rapid preparation, proper positioning of the patient for optimal imaging and real-time analysis by our veterinary team. This allows us to provide reliable diagnoses in a matter of minutes and define the most appropriate treatment.
In cases that require it, we collaborate with imaging specialists to confirm findings and ensure maximum accuracy.

Veterinary radiology is a quick and effective test to evaluate internal structures, especially bones, joints and thorax.
The veterinary radiology (X-rays) is a quick and very useful test to evaluate bone, joints and thoraxIt can also help with some abdominal problems (depending on the case). At Benivet Benissa we indicate it when, after the examination, we need to confirm a suspicion (trauma, lameness, cough, respiratory difficulty, pain, etc.). If it is necessary to complete the study, we can recommend the following tests only when they provide useful information:
Veterinary practice in BenissaComplete examination and indication of the most appropriate test according to symptoms.
Veterinary orthopaedics and traumatologywhen there is lameness, joint pain, muscle/bone injury or suspected osteoarthritisto assess the treatment and follow-up plan.
Blood testsuseful if there is fever/decompression, suspected systemic inflammation or to assess safety of medication and/or sedation if required.
Veterinary ultrasoundkey complement when the problem is in organs and soft tissues (abdomen, bladder, liver, kidneys) or when radiography and ultrasound are needed to complete the information.
Veterinary CAT scan: recommended in complex cases (spine, joints, skull) when we need more detail to decide on treatment or plan surgery.
If the case requires a global approach or chronic disease monitoring, we coordinate the plan from veterinary internal medicine. And if there's a procedure or intervention, we integrate it with anaesthesia and analgesia for safe pain management.

Yes. Veterinary X-rays use very controlled doses X-rays and are performed according to strict safety protocols. Exposure is brief and limited to the necessary area. At Benivet Benissa we have direct digital radiologywhich reduces time and improves image quality.
Not always. Most pets can be x-rayed without sedation. However, if the animal is very nervous, the area is painful to manipulate, or very specific projections are needed, a light sedation to obtain quality images and avoid stress.
X-rays are usually obtained in few minutesand digital images can be viewed instantly. The vet usually discusses the findings during the same visit and, if necessary, suggests additional tests such as ultrasound or blood tests.
In many cases, yes. Radiography helps to identify masses, bony changes, pulmonary changes, foreign bodies, fluid in the chest or abdomenamong others. Depending on the type of injury, it may require a ultrasound or CT scan for further study.
