Until recently, x-ray technology had remained unchanged for almost a hundred years.  New digital X-ray systems have vastly improved our diagnostic abilities by using computers to aid in the capture and manipulation of the image.  The results are simply stunning!  Now X-rays are safer, quicker, and much more useful.  They can be stored in a digital format and sent over the web for consultation with a specialist if necessary.  The Court Street Animal Hospital has invested in this revolutionary technology to better serve you and your four legged companions.

Shown here is a standard X-ray of a side view of a cat's abdomen.

Shown here is a similar X-ray taken with a digital system.  Compare the two.  Notice the incredible detail of this film.  This image is far more likely to lead to a diagnosis than the previous one.
