Hysteroscopy - inspection of the female uterine cavity

Problems in your pet's reproductive system can not only impair her quality of life, but can also pose a threat to her. Hysteroscopy at Veterinary Hospital Animal Clinic International is an effective and safe method of examination. Diagnosis involves the following steps:

• Application of general anesthesia.
• Injection of saline solution into the uterine cavity.
• Examination of the uterus in real time using a hysteroscope - a thin tube with a miniature camera and a tiny illuminator.

The equipment sends an image magnified 30 times to the monitor. This allows our veterinarians in Los Angeles to make accurate diagnoses.

Signs that indicate the need for a hysteroscopy

Schedule your pet for an endoscopic examination at our veterinary hospital if she's experiencing a disrupted sexual cycle: her heat is too long, starts too often, or doesn't come at all. You'll also need a hardware exam if your pet has had a miscarriage.

Officially breeding animals and assume the female is infertile? Hysteroscopy can confirm or refute this. Early detection of pathology is a higher probability of favorable treatment outcome.
