Is there anything I should do to prepare my dog for a diagnostic imaging session? - Animal Hospital of Statesville
We might ask you to fast your pet. That way, if we are x-raying or doing an ultrasound, we don't have a lot of food in the stomach that might obscure an image. Or we may need them fasted if we're going to give them any type of mild sedative or general anesthesia.
