We do ultrasound scans for dogs and cats at both our Dubai clinics. A pet ultrasound gives your vet a live look at organs like the liver, kidneys and bladder.
Ultrasound scans for dogs and cats at Al Furjan and City Walk. Open daily, 8am–10pm.
You can also book consultations, vaccinations, deworming, neutering, grooming and dental care at either clinic.
Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves, not radiation, to create live, moving images of the inside of your dog's or cat's body. The vet can see the inside structure of organs, not only their outline.
Book a consultationSound waves cannot pass through air or bone, so ultrasound is limited for the lungs and the skeleton. X-rays are better for those.
An X-ray shows the size, shape and position of organs. An ultrasound shows what's happening inside them. Your vet will recommend one, or both, depending on what gives the clearest answer.
Live images made with sound waves, with no radiation. Best for the inside of abdominal organs, fluid and lumps.
A still image made with a very low dose of radiation. Best for bones, joints, the chest and swallowed objects.
A vet examines your pet and decides which test is needed. If your own vet referred you, bring the referral.
Once the vet has reviewed them, the images and report can be shared with you digitally.
If you notice any of these, book a consultation. Your vet will decide whether an ultrasound is needed.

Reviews from clients at our Al Furjan and City Walk clinics.
Alia OumeishCat parent · Google review The staff were so friendly, and very kind and caring to my little cat. They did an excellent job and kept both me and Leo comfortable. Would definitely recommend! We dealt with Dr. Chinnu, Dr. Lamiya, Arpita, and Emmanuel, who gave Leo the best haircut he's ever had — all incredibly lovely.
Rena MedawarCat parent · Google review Excellent care and kind staff. The team at PetsFirst City Walk treated my cat with so much compassion and professionalism. They took the time to explain everything clearly and made both me and Bella feel at ease. Highly recommended.
Arbina ShaikhCat parent · Google review I've been going to PetsFirst since they opened in City Walk, and honestly I'm beyond satisfied. They take care of my cats so well — the staff even remember the names of each of my four cats whenever we visit. They don't overcharge, and their prices are so reasonable. Super happy with PetsFirst, 10 out of 10.

Usually, yes. A vet examines your pet first to make sure an ultrasound is the right test. If your own vet has referred you, bring the referral with you.
Yes. Our vets carry out ultrasound scans for dogs and cats at both clinics. Dog ultrasound and cat ultrasound follow the same steps: a consultation first, then the scan, then a clear explanation of the results.
Ultrasound scans are done at both PetsFirst clinics, Al Furjan and City Walk. They are not available through our mobile clinic, so if your pet was seen at home, your vet will arrange the scan at either clinic.
For tummy scans, usually yes. An empty stomach gives a clearer view. We'll confirm exactly how long when you book.
A small area is clipped so the probe can make good contact with the skin. It grows back over the following weeks.
Most pets don't. If your pet is anxious or uncomfortable, your vet may recommend mild sedation and will explain this before going ahead.
Yes. Ultrasound uses sound waves, not radiation, and is non-invasive.
