Advanced Veterinary Imaging in One System
Give your veterinary team a clearer view of what is happening inside your patients.
The Vetist 3 is a veterinary Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) imaging system that combines four imaging capabilities: CT, digital radiography (DR), fluoroscopy (FL), and panoramic imaging.
With fast scanning, detailed images, advanced 3D reconstruction, and specialized veterinary imaging software, the Vetist 3 helps veterinarians evaluate complex cases and make more informed diagnostic decisions.
The system is designed for veterinary practices looking to expand their diagnostic capabilities while bringing multiple imaging functions together in one piece of equipment.
Four Imaging Modes in One System
Choose the imaging mode that best fits your patient's diagnostic needs.
1. Cone Beam CT Imaging
Detailed cross-sectional imaging with 600–1,000 reconstruction slices, 0.2 mm minimum slice thickness, and advanced 3D reconstruction capabilities.
2. Digital Radiography (DR)
Digital X-ray imaging for routine veterinary examinations. Includes edge enhancement, multiple imaging algorithms, and tools such as TPLO, VHS, and TTA.
3. Fluoroscopy (FL)
Real-time dynamic imaging that allows veterinarians to observe internal structures in motion. The manufacturer describes continuous exposure capability of up to one minute.
4. Panoramic Imaging
Dental and jaw imaging designed to capture the full dental arch and jaw in one scan, supporting detailed evaluation of oral and dental structures.

Dental and Jaw Imaging
Support evaluation of periodontal disease, tooth root abnormalities, dental abscesses, oral cysts, and surrounding bone structures.
Chest and Lung Imaging
Examine thoracic anatomy, including pulmonary nodules, fluid accumulation, and inflammatory changes.
Abdominal Imaging
Evaluate abdominal anatomy, including the kidneys, pancreas, urinary system, and other internal structures.
Vascular Imaging
Contrast imaging capabilities support evaluation of vascular structures, including selected angiography applications.
Spine and Orthopedic Imaging
Review spinal anatomy, vertebral abnormalities, fractures, and orthopedic structures using CT and reconstruction tools.
Tumor Evaluation
Detailed anatomical imaging supports evaluation of masses, tumors, and surrounding tissues when clinically indicated.
Thoracic Duct Imaging
Specialized imaging applications can help evaluate lymphatic anatomy and selected causes of chylothorax.
