See the Full Picture, Clearly

When it comes to chronic ear disease our CBCT scanner is essential. At Cheshire Veterinary Dermatology we use our state-of -the art Fujifilm 7G cone beam computed tomography equipment to capture detailed three-dimensional images of the head.

It allows us to identify changes to the ear canal, assess the middle ear and identify neoplasms. Chronic or recurrent ear problems may not be resolving due to a middle ear infection, so it is essential for us to determine if the middle ears are filled with pus, fluid or soft tissue or if there are changes to the bone surrounding the middle ear.

This detailed information helps us to make an accurate diagnosis, plan procedures – such as a myringotomy – and give a clearer prognosis.

If your pet has persistent ear issues or requires further investigation, CBCT scanning will be a vital step in their care.
