Veterinary hospitals and clinics have to be prepared for a wide variety of patients with a diversity of medical needs. Because of this, vets need flexible options for equipment used in diagnosis and treatment of animal medical issues, and this is the case with veterinary x-ray equipment. Many veterinary clinics are switching to veterinary digital x-ray for its superior quality digital images that bring a cost-effective choice to the full range of x-ray options available today.

Digital imaging systems are chosen by veterinarians for several important reasons. First is the speed with which digital medical images can be taken and processed when compared to the same tasks performed with film x-rays. Another is that by digitizing medical images to the dicom format, it allows them to be archived and transmitted over the Internet, taking what was once a time-laden chore and turning it into something that now takes only seconds. Finally, perhaps the best reason to use a digital imaging system is that, as with all computer technology costs, the prices for these items has dropped dramatically in recent years. Now more than ever even smaller veterinary clinics that were once price out of the digital imaging market can afford to convert their existing film equipment to digital imaging systems, and can also find well-maintained used equipment as well to fill out their imaging suite.

Doctors may select from Veterinary CR and Veterinary DR digital imagers. While CR systems offer the most affordable option for digital x-rays of excellent quality, DR systems provides the highest resolution digital images currently available at a higher initial purchase cost for equipment. One factor that helps veterinarians move to digital x-rays is that both of these digital imagers can be transported and used in a mobile veterinary van or truck. In many instances, a veterinarian's patients may not be able to come to a clinic for x-rays, but with a mobile x-ray system you can get the digital images you need out in the field, and with a laptop computer with wireless connection you can send those digital images back to your home office for further diagnosis and study, as well as storage.

Veterinary digital x-ray units are most functional when teamed with Veterinary PACS systems. The PACS allows you to view, distribute and store your digital medical images quickly and efficiently, saving time and money in the day-to-day operation of your veterinary hospital or clinic.

A complete range of veterinary x-ray equipment is available for your perusal from online medical imaging distributors and systems integrators.
