Non Invasive Cancer Detection with HT-Vista Scanning

A Gentle First Step in Lump Assessment

We are extremely proud to be among the first and very few veterinary clinics in the UK to offer HT-Vista screening; the only non-invasive diagnostic device specifically designed to assess lumps and bumps in dogs. This groundbreaking technology allows us to evaluate whether a lump is likely benign or may require further investigation, all without the need for needles, sedation, or invasive procedures.

HT-Vista uses advanced heat diffusion technology to analyse tissue temperature and cellular activity, providing quick and reliable insights into the nature of a lump. The process is fast, painless, and stress-free for your pet, making it an ideal first step in diagnostic care.

Why Choose HT-Vista?

• Non-invasive and needle-free
• No sedation required
• Results in minutes
• Comfortable and low-stress for your dog

HT-Vista screening offers peace of mind by reducing the uncertainty and anxiety often associated with traditional diagnostic methods. It bridges the gap between routine check-ups and more advanced testing, helping you make informed decisions about your dog’s health with confidence and compassion.

What to expect:

• A small patch of fur is clipped over the lump
• A handheld probe is gently applied for approximately 50 seconds
• No sedation is required and the entire procedure takes just a few minutes

This non-invasive approach offers peace of mind and helps guide the next steps in your pet’s care with minimal discomfort.

What is otoscopy?

An otoscopy is one of the ways we make sure your pet’s ears stay healthy and comfortable. It’s a simple procedure where we use a small tool called an otoscope — equipped with a light and a magnifying lens or camera — to look gently inside your pet’s ear canal and check the eardrum. This gives our team a clear view of what’s happening deeper in the ear, helping us diagnose issues accurately and choose the best treatment for your pet.

Why do we perform otoscopy?

We may recommend an otoscopic exam if your pet is showing signs that their ears are bothering them. Some common reasons include:
• Chronic ear infections: Ongoing or recurring infections that don’t fully clear up.
• Scratching or head shaking: Pets who seem unusually irritated by their ears.
• Ear discharge: Any unusual fluid, especially if it has a smell or odd colour.
• Changes in hearing: Reduced responsiveness or suspected hearing loss.
• Redness or swelling: Visible irritation or inflammation inside the ear.
• Head tilt or balance changes: Loss of balance, persistent tilting or circling.

Our aim is always to make the experience as gentle and stress free as possible while getting to the root of the problem quickly, so your pet can feel like themselves again.
