Affordable Spinal Surgery in the Bay Area NOW OPEN! One of the main goals of Bay Area Vet MRI has always been to make MRI services more affordable. We have remained committed to that mission since opening 18 months ago, and currently our MRI price remains the lowest in the Bay Area, of $3,150!

How are we able to keep MRI services affordable without compromising quality of care? There are two main reasons:
A.) Independently owned: We are not corporate-owned, so we do not share revenue with outside investors.
B.) Lower operating costs: Our MRI unit is fully paid off, and Dr Adamo, a board- certified veterinary neurologist, interprets neurologic MRI studies in-house. We still share the full study with pet owners and referring veterinarians.

🩺 Case of the Month — Bay Area Vet MRI

Presented by: Dr. Filippo Adamo, DVM, Dipl. ECVN
Case: French Bulldog with progressive vestibular disease

This month’s featured case highlights the importance of advanced imaging and diagnostic testing in identifying complex neurological infections.
A French Bulldog was referred to Bay Area Vet MRI with an eight-day history of progressive vestibular disease and loss of appetite.

💡 MRI Findings:
MRI scans revealed signal abnormalities in the left brainstem and left tympanic cavity, with contrast enhancement along the meninges and petrous bone—findings consistent with infection extending from the middle/inner ear into the brainstem.

🧫 Additional Tests:
CSF analysis showed severe neutrophilic inflammation, with cultures identifying E. coli (resistant to amoxicillin-clavulanate, sensitive to enrofloxacin).
Myringotomy fluid also confirmed septic inflammation with phagocytized rods and hemorrhage, supporting a diagnosis of septic meningoencephalitis/otitis due to E. coli.

💊 Treatment Plan:
Immediate anti-inflammatory therapy (DexSP IV) was administered, followed by antibiotic treatment with Enrofloxacin and Amoxicillin-Clavulanic Acid pending culture results.
A short course of prednisone and gabapentin was added to manage inflammation and discomfort.

✅ Diagnosis:
Left middle and inner ear infection extending into the left brainstem (septic meningoencephalitis/otitis due to E. coli).

🧠 Advanced MRI and laboratory diagnostics played a crucial role in identifying the infection source and guiding targeted treatment.

At Bay Area Vet MRI, we’re proud to support veterinarians with precise imaging and diagnostics that make a difference in our patients’ recovery.
