From Concern to Clarity: Real-Life CT Case Studies at The COVE
A Computed Tomography (CT) scan provides high-definition, cross-sectional images of an animal's body—offering a clearer view than traditional x-rays or ultrasound alone. CT is especially helpful in diagnosing nasal disease, brain conditions, spinal issues like IVDD, orthopedic injuries, tumors, and internal abnormalities.
 
At The COVE, we specialize in outpatient CT imaging for small animals and exotics. We deliver fast results interpreted by board-certified veterinary radiologists, giving your care team the insights needed to move forward.
 
Explore real-life cases that highlight the wide-ranging applications of CT technology. Each case underscores how timely imaging helped pet parents and veterinary teams make more informed, confident decisions.
