Cardiology

Cardiology is the study of the heart. It involves both diagnosis and treatment of heart conditions. We have state of the art diagnostic tools at Memorial-610 Hospital for Animals to help diagnose and treat a wide range of heart diseases. The stethoscope and radiographs are the cornerstones for diagnosis of heart disease. More advanced diagnosis and treatment are available with new technology. We use a Vetronics® computerized ECG/Blood Pressure machine to detect heart arrhythmias and hypertension, and an Aloka® SSD Ultrasound machine for Echocardiography. The combination of these four tools, a blend of old and new technology, makes diagnosis and treatment of heart conditions at Memorial-610 Hospital for Animals exemplary. The association of our experience, these four tools, and referral to Board Certified Veterinary Cardiologists and Radiologists when indicated allows for complete cardiac care.
