The board certified radiologists of VICSD offer a superior “Second Opinion” teleradiology service to the veterinarians of Southern California. This service is similar to the radiology services offered in most human hospitals.
Having all of your radiographs sent for a second opinion is the single most important step a veterinarian can take to increase the level of medicine performed at their hospital. Our years of working in referral practices have shown us that most of the errors made by veterinarians are errors of omission. Errors of omission are lesions that are missed on radiographs considered to be ‘normal’ on first look.
Where a veterinarian in general practice may look at 15 – 20 radiographic images each week, VICSD specialists see anywhere from 200 – 400 during that same time. The radiologists at VICSD are trained in identifying subtle but crucial radiographic changes that could be easily overlooked.
Teleradiology makes the possibility of having a board certified veterinary radiologist working in every veterinary practice a reality.(Read More)
