Radiology

Radiology (or Diagnostic Imaging) is the branch of biomedical science that deals with the use of various imaging modalities to diagnose and treat disease. Imaging methods include radiology (x-rays), ultrasound, fluoroscopy, computed tomography, nuclear scintigraphy, and magnetic resonance imaging.


Courses in Diagnostic Imaging are offered in the Veterinary curriculum, as well as post-DVM Radiology Resident training. Radiation Therapy facilities are present to treat cancer patients. The Radiology section participates in the Veterinary Teaching Hospital providing imaging services for large animal, small animal, and exotic species.
