Advanced CT Imaging for Pets
At Elizavet, we use state-of-the-art CT scanning technology for precise and detailed imaging. Our Siemens 16–32 slice CT scanner delivers high-resolution images with advanced 3D reconstruction capabilities. This cutting-edge equipment allows exceptional visualisation of complex anatomical structures, supporting accurate diagnosis of neurological conditions, orthopaedic injuries, cancer staging, and a wide range of advanced medical assessments.
We are proud to be one of the few practices in the area able to offer this service to pet owners and referring veterinary practices in Marylebone, Belsize Park, Camden and the surrounding areas of North and Central London and beyond.

The Features and Benefits of CT Scans for Pets
Why consider a CT scan?
A CT scan provides exceptional precision and clarity, often revealing subtle changes that X-rays or ultrasound may miss. As part of our comprehensive veterinary diagnostic imaging service, this technology is invaluable for identifying and assessing a wide range of conditions.
- Foreign bodies: Detecting ingested items or materials such as grass seeds that may become lodged in the ears, nose, lungs, or paws.
- Tumours: Determining the size and exact position of a tumour, which assists in surgical planning and assessing whether it has spread before an operation.
- Bone and joint issues: Identifying fractures, joint malformations, or bone tumours with high-resolution accuracy.
- Neurological concerns: Evaluating injuries in detail, for example to the head or spine, to guide appropriate treatment.
- Respiratory conditions: Investigating the underlying causes of persistent coughing, sneezing, or breathing difficulties.
- Internal trauma: Assessing internal organ damage following incidents such as road traffic accidents or falls.
Benefits of veterinary CT scanning
CT imaging for dogs and cats provides rapid, detailed results that allow vets to make accurate diagnoses with minimal discomfort for the patient. Elizavet’s in-house 3D imaging capability enables precise visualisation of internal structures, reducing the need for exploratory surgery. It also supports quicker, more targeted treatments. As a leading veterinary CT scanning facility in North London, we combine expertise and advanced technology to deliver the highest standard of care.
