Whats the approx cost of an x-ray?

Does anyone know of an approx cost of an x-ray?

Buddy had an x-ray last year and as it was off insurance i cant remember the cost of it.

Can't say for sure, as mutt has never just had an xray, but as it would require a general anaesthetic I'd be guessing round about the £100 mark?

Thank you. Im hoping that Buddy doesnt need one done.

I think it would be a bit more than £100!
The anaesthetic price is usual size dependant £60-120 ish
or a sedation (price is normally the same could be a little cheeper?)
and the x-ray price is done on number of pictures/view £40ish + per view- normally two views.
Plus you would have to see a vet first for them examine the pet and for a consult £20 ish +

i was recently quoted £50 for my cat to tell how many kittens she was carrying think this was without anaesthetic though.

I was charged £120ish for xray plus £20ish for sedation drugs. Plus £30-35 per extra view on the xray. That was for my cat, not sure if that makes a difference.

Well my dog was x-rayed today and it cost £245 ! The x-ray was about £120 plus sedation, plus numbers of x-ray films, plus consultation fee etc etc. Thank the lord for pet insurance !

Zara (GS) has an X-ray on back legs booked for 28th Feb.

Estimate I got from the vet is £450-£500 (London, Goddars).

Yes, got insurance - sigh...

Bless her, I guess that is resonable if it covers both legs? Mine was the cost of Layla's front leg - she has a little fracture

Yesterday i asked at the vets whats the cost of an x-ray for Buddy. They quoted me £52 for the x-ray and £62 for the anaesthetic (if he needs one).
