Outpatient Ultrasound - Pet Owners

Your primary care veterinarian will need to submit an Outpatient case request online with your pet’s pertinent medical history. Once our team reviews and approves the scan request, we will reach out to you directly to schedule the ultrasound service needed.

Once our team receives and approves the Outpatient case request that is submitted by your primary veterinarian, we will reach out to you directly to schedule the ultrasound for same or next day. Specific drop off instructions will be given at that time.

We will call you once the ultrasound exam is complete, and will provide instructions for pick-up. It is likely that your pet will be with us for a couple hours.

Dr. Connie Shang, founder of MiVU, will be the primary veterinarian to perform most outpatient ultrasound services. The images will be sent to a board certified radiologist, who will interpret the scan and send us a detailed report of the findings.

Most reports should be received by your primary care veterinarian within 24hours after the ultrasound is performed.

Our ultrasound report is sent to your primary veterinarian, who will then discuss the findings and treatment plan with you.

Since we have a range of ultrasound services, the costs vary and are dependent on which type(s) of ultrasound are needed. If your primary veterinarian does not have our pricing, please give us a call to request pricing information.

All fees are to be paid in full at time of discharge.

During the ultrasound, our veterinarian may deem sedation necessary for the safety of both your pet and our team. We will gather your consent to administer sedation prior to ultrasound being performed. This consent will either be reported to us by your primary care veterinarian, or we will have you fill out a consent form at the time of your scheduled appointment.

If sedation is needed for your pet, and consent is not given, we will likely not be able to perform the scheduled ultrasound service.
