If they come in with an injured leg, they will most likely take an x-ray. If they come in with a palpable tumor in their abdomen, your veterinarian can use either an x-ray or ultrasound. Cat owners are generally great about communicating their cat’s symptoms to help a veterinarian with a diagnosis. However, regardless of the details they provide, the veterinary team still needs diagnostic imaging to confirm a diagnosis. That can include not only x-rays and ultrasounds but also possibly blood work and urine analysis. <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="link" href="https://www.merckvetmanual.com/special-pet-topics/diagnostic-tests-and-imaging/types-of-veterinary-medical-tests">The Merck Veterinary Manual</a>&nbsp;details additional diagnostic tests that they can use with diagnostic imaging.&nbsp;</p><h2 dir="auto" style="text-align: left; line-height: 33px"><strong>Why is early detection and diagnosis of internal injury to your cat so important?</strong></h2><p dir="auto" style="text-align: left; line-height: 1.6em">Early detection and diagnosis of any medical problem in your cat are critical to their well-being, quality of life, and longevity. We always want to identify a condition quickly and treat it effectively for the best prognosis. Dental disease, a wound, or a broken bone all need to be treated as soon as possible to ensure your cat’s long-term health.&nbsp;</p>
