Digital Radiography

- Palmetto Equine Clinic offers wireless digital radiography (DR) both in our facility and on farms.  The DR units consist of a detector (plate) which collects the image and a generator which takes the image.  The image is then transferred to a laptop where it can be reviewed immediately.  The veterinarian can examine, manipulate, and optimize the image, sometimes allowing preliminary diagnoses to be made stall-side.  Images are then uploaded to a central server with high resolution monitors and specialized image viewing software that are used to make final diagnoses.
