Mochdre vets to image Chester Zoo’s exotic animals with latest CT system

Mochdre Veterinary Practice, which serves the majority of the Llandudno area in Wales, has invested in one of the latest CT systems to provide a range of imaging services, not only to household pets but also to a variety of exotic animals from Chester Zoo.

In April 2023, a specially designed relocatable solution was manufactured by WH Bence to suit an existing industrial building. The challenge was to be able to manoeuvre the relocatable system in through an existing doorway, providing a plug-and-play CT service. The delivery included specialist transportation and craneage in order to move the relocatable equipment into position.

The integration of this state-of-the-art CT system in the relocatable unit from WH Bence gives Mochdre Veterinary Practice the chance to offer a wider variety of services to its customer base and provide these imaging services more quickly, as previously animals would have to travel up to 60 miles for a scan.
