Arthroscopy

Diagnostic surgical arthroscope (‘keyhole’ surgery for diagnostics and treatment of joint and tendon diseases) with video monitor and recording,

Endoscopy

Two flexible fibre optic endoscope for upper respiratory tract investigations.

Oroscopy

We are able to perform oroscopy both in-house at the practice and out on the yard. Our oroscopes allow a very thorough and detailed visual examination of the oral cavity and occlusal surface of the teeth to be performed, allowing identification, investigation and treatment of pathology, such as diastema, periodontal disease, infundibular caries, dentinal defects, fractures and soft tissue masses.

Oroscopy enables owners to view any pathology present on a separate screen or tablet, allowing for increased understanding when it comes to decision making with treatment options and for being involved in monitoring progress.

Gastroscopy

3.5 meter digital gastroscope that enables us to examine the stomach and first part of small intestine in even the largest of our patients.
