Advanced Imaging
MRI and CT Scans
Save Big with MexiVet Express
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans and a computed tomography scan (CT scan) are both helpful tools that can help diagnose and treat your fur baby. These diagnostic tools provide vets with detailed images that can reveal the source of your pet’s health issues. However, the cost of a canine MRI scan in the United States can be very expensive.
That’s why MexiVet Express works with experienced vets just across the border in Tijuana, Mexico, to help you save big on your vet bills. We’ll help connect you with one of our vets, book your appointment and drive your pet to-and-from their appointment.
MRI scans are a non-invasive procedure that use large magnets to produce images of your pet’s body tissues
They are sometimes used to brain and spinal cord problems like:
- Strokes
- Tumors
- Disc disease
- Spinal fractures
- Narrowing spinal canal
A CT scan takes multiple x-rays of a specific area, and uses a computer to create a 3D view.
CT scans for pets can help diagnose:
- Lung conditions
- Abnormalities of the head and sinuses
- Cancer
MexiVet Express will help…
Set you up with an appointment (we often have same-week and even next-day availability).
Process your paperwork. We will collect your pet’s intake forms, medical history and vaccine records prior to your appointment.
Provide transportation for your pet, there and back. Your pet will ride with one of our trained and trusted, animal-loving drivers and we can usually get you an appointment the very next day.
Communicate with the vet in Tijuana. Don’t speak spanish? No problem. We will act as a liaison between you and the vet, helping to translate your pet’s diagnosis and treatment plan.
Many people choose to continue care at their Tijuana vet, while others bring the images and reports back to their regular vet for evaluation in the U.S. Either way, getting a CT scan or MRI for your pet through MexiVet Express can help you save on expensive diagnostic testing.
