Outpatient CT Referral

In addition to our orthopaedic and spinal surgery referral services we also offer an outpatient CT scanning service for our colleagues in general practice. This service is ideal for referring vets who wish to continue to manage their own cases. Patients are admitted and discharged by a referral nurse, however if it becomes apparent that other investigations are needed we will contact you to discuss the case.

To refer a patient, either complete the form below or use our online rVetLink portal and leave the rest to us. We will contact the client directly and let you know when an appointment for the CT scan has been arranged.

We will submit the CT images to specialist radiologists for interpretation who will then report direct to you so that you can report their findings to your client.

Please note that with this type of referral we perform a basic pre-anaesthetic health check including a blood profile if required but we do not have a consultation with the client and we do not provide any input into the management of the case.

This service is not suitable for emergency or unstable cases.
