At Z&Z Medical, we take veterinary radiation safety seriously. We understand that working with x-ray technology can be hazardous, and we are committed to providing veterinarians and other professionals with the tools and resources they need to protect themselves and their patients from radiation exposure.

One key aspect of radiation safety is the use of protective gear, such as glasses, gloves, and aprons. These items are made of materials that are designed to reduce scatter radiation, and they are an essential part of any radiation safety program.

We offer a wide range of protective gear specifically designed for use in the veterinary field, including glasses, gloves, and aprons that are comfortable and easy to use. Our glasses are made with durable materials and are designed to protect the eyes from scatter radiation exposure, while our gloves and aprons are made with lead or other radiation-blocking materials to protect the hands and body.

In addition to protective gear, we also offer a range of other products and resources to help veterinarians and other professionals stay safe when working with x-ray technology. This includes safety signage, training materials, and other resources that can help to educate and inform professionals about the hazards of radiation and how to minimize the risks.

Overall, we are committed to helping veterinarians and other professionals stay safe when working with x-ray technology, and we are proud to offer a wide range of products and resources to help them do so.

Today is National Bird Day!

January 5th is National Bird Day, a day dedicated to celebrating and raising awareness about birds and the important role they play in our ecosystem. At Z&Z Medical, we are proud to offer a range of x-ray positioners that are specifically designed to help veterinarians and other professionals take high-quality x-ray images of our avian friends.

X-ray positioners are important tools that allow veterinarians to position an animal in a specific position in order to get the best possible x-ray image. This is especially important when it comes to birds, as their small size and unique anatomy can make it challenging to get good x-ray images.

Our x-ray positioners for birds are specifically designed to help veterinarians get clear, high-quality x-ray images of birds, even when they are difficult to position. They are lightweight and easy to use, and they can be adjusted to accommodate a wide range of bird sizes and species.

In addition to being easy to use, our x-ray positioners are also durable and long-lasting, making them a great investment for any veterinary practice. They are also backed by our exceptional customer service and support, so you can count on us to be there for you whenever you need us.

Overall, our x-ray positioners are an essential tool for veterinarians who work with birds, and we are proud to offer a range of products that can help them get the best possible x-ray images of these amazing creatures. On National Bird Day and every day, we are committed to helping veterinarians and other professionals provide the best possible care to our avian friends.

National Pet Cancer Awareness Month

National Pet Cancer Awareness Month

Both traditional and special contrast X-ray techniques are used to look for tumors in a pet's lungs, gastrointestinal tract, bladder and other internal organs. X-rays are usually used as the first imaging test to evaluate a pet's condition and determine whether the cancer has spread throughout the body.  

CT is a specialized imaging technique available at referral centers or specialty hospitals. CT relies on the differences in density between tissues to form an image and the images of cross-sections of the body are generated by a computer. It is a superior technique compared to X-rays in evaluating cancer in the lung, the chest cavity and ribs, and is important for planning radiation therapy. CT scans can also be used to guide biopsies when a suspected mass needs further analysis.

Ultrasound refers to a technique used to examine internal organs in the abdomen and to also help guide biopsys. The veterinarian places a transducer emitting sound waves in contact with the area of interest (e.g. stomach), moves it around and views the structure of internal organs on a monitor in real time. It is routinely used to evaluate masses discovered during physical examination or to check for metastasis to liver, spleen or other organs. It is generally not used to evaluate structures that contain air such as the lungs since air prevents the transfer of sound waves.    

MRI uses strong magnetic fields to create three-dimensional images created by a computer. MRI is extensively used to evaluate masses in the central nervous system such as the spine or brain and has been useful in providing images of soft tissues, joints, tendons, muscles and bone marrow.

Z&Z Medical understands the importance of Imaging animals and works closely with the Veterinary Field to provide a wide array of imaging accessories and supplies for both X-Ray, CT, Ultrasound and MRI for animal imaging.  Visit our website to learn more or email info@zzmedical.com
