Terms and Conditions of Imaging Only Service 

CT and MRI can be sent to us for imaging only by other veterinary surgeons without the case being referred to us. We will image the case and you can either have the images read by a third party or we can image and do a full report. The client will have an admission and discharge appointment with a VN and will not see our clinicians so will not be charged a referral consult fee. Contrast media used in advanced imaging are used with caution in patients with impaired renal or liver function therefore patients should have had a pre GA blood test in the 2 weeks prior to the procedure- if this has not been done or the referring vet has not provided results of this we reserve the right to perform a Pre GA blood screen on the day of the procedure at an additional cost to the owner. Clients will be expected to pay in full  for imaging on the day of the procedure, no direct claims will be accepted therefore please make sure clients are aware of the costs before making the appointment. We accept most debit and credit cards and cash as forms of payment. We will not discuss imaging result with the owners, give any treatments or treatment recommendations *

(*except in emergency situations where the patients health and welfare is at risk, in such cases we will always try to contact you and keep you informed )
