Advanced Digital X-Ray Imaging with the SUMMIT HF4 System
At our clinic, we use the SUMMIT HF4 Radiographic System, a high-performance digital X-ray table designed specifically for veterinary medicine. This advanced imaging system allows our team to capture clear, detailed diagnostic images quickly and safely, helping us diagnose and treat your pet with confidence.
Great veterinary care starts with skill and compassion — and having the right diagnostic tools makes all the difference.
What This Means for Your Pet
The HF4 system allows us to obtain high-quality X-ray images from multiple angles with minimal repositioning, which means:
- Faster imaging and shorter appointment times
- Less stress for your pet during the exam
- Clear, accurate images for confident diagnosis
- Improved treatment planning and follow-up care
Because images are captured quickly and precisely, your pet spends less time on the table while we get the information we need.
Designed for Accuracy and Comfort
The HF4 features a four-way floating tabletop, allowing smooth, precise positioning without unnecessary movement. This is especially important for pets that are painful, anxious, or recovering from injury.
The table’s enclosed, integrated design also improves stability and safety, while allowing our veterinary team to position the X-ray tube vertically and horizontally for optimal image capture.
High-Quality Images You Can Trust
This system uses high-frequency X-ray technology, producing sharp, detailed images that help identify:
- Bone fractures and joint problems
- Arthritis and spinal issues
- Lung and heart conditions
- Abdominal concerns such as blockages or organ enlargement
Clear imaging leads to earlier detection, more accurate diagnoses, and better outcomes for your pet.
Reliable, Professional-Grade Technology
The SUMMIT HF4 system is manufactured in a North American ISO 9001 certified facility and engineered to meet the demanding needs of veterinary professionals. It includes built-in safety features, automated protection systems, and self-diagnostics to ensure reliable performance every day.
For pet owners, this means dependable technology supporting every diagnostic decision we make.
Why Advanced X-Ray Technology Matters
X-rays are a critical diagnostic tool that allow us to look beneath the surface without invasive procedures. Having a modern, high-resolution system like the HF4 ensures that we can:
- Make faster, more accurate diagnoses
- Reduce the need for repeat imaging
- Provide timely treatment recommendations
- Monitor healing and disease progression effectively
