Digital Thermal Imaging
Early detection and prompt treatment of chronic medical conditions, such as osteoarthritis.
What is Digital Thermal Imaging
Digital thermal imaging is a non-invasive technology that enables your veterinarian to evaluate, diagnose, monitor, and treat disease and injury in companion animals. It leverages the power of infrared scanning to detect subtle changes in temperature that may indicate inflammation, pain, circulation issues, and other medical concerns.
When is Digital Thermal Imaging Recommended?
The medical team at the Cedarburg Veterinary Clinic is well-trained in recognizing the need for additional diagnostic testing. We frequently recommend using Digitherm for the following situations:
- Outward signs of pain or inflammation
- Senior exams
- Injury and/or post-surgical recovery monitoring
- Circulation and nerve evaluation
Benefits of Digital Thermal Imaging
Digitherm technology allows us to achieve the following for our patients:
- Generate a physiological map to identify areas of the body requiring further examination
- Early detection and prompt treatment of chronic medical conditions, such as osteoarthritis
- Accurate measurement of a recommended treatment protocol
- Visual representation of where a pet may be experiencing pain or discomfort
