Urinary Examinations For Your Pet
Knutsford Vets is dedicated to offering your pets the most cutting-edge diagnostic tools. Veterinary cystoscopy is one such service—a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose problems within your dogs urinary tract.
When Is Cystoscopy Used?
Our rigid endoscopy allows endoscopic evaluation of female dogs only as the urethra is straighter and wider than cats or male dogs.
This diagnostic procedure employs a cystoscope—a rigid endoscope is connected to a light source and camera—to visualize the interior of the bladder and urethra.
How Is Cystoscopy performed?
Performed under general anesthesia, cystoscopy aids in diagnosing various urinary tract conditions, such as bladder stones, tumors, and ppolyps.
This procedure provides veterinarians with a detailed view of the bladder and urethra, offering crucial insights into their health.
What Are The Benefits And Advantages Of Cystoscopy?
Cystoscopy offers several advantages for diagnosing and treating urinary tract issues:
- Precise Diagnosis: The clear view inside the bladder and urethra allows veterinarians to accurately identify conditions like bladder stones, tumors, and ppolyps.
- Minimally Invasive: Compared to traditional surgery, cystoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure, avoiding incisions and extensive tissue trauma.
- Early Detection: Visualizing the interior of the bladder and urethra enables early identification of problems, preventing them from becoming more serious.
- Biopsy Collection: Cystoscopy allows for the collection of biopsy samples for further analysis and diagnosis of specific conditions.
- Reduced Discomfort and Faster Recovery: Because cystoscopy is performed under general anaesthesia and is minimally invasive, it typically results in quicker recovery times.
