Imaging Intent Boundary
This URL is retained because species and imaging modality change the user's decision. X-ray and ultrasound answer different clinical questions, and dog/cat searches can involve different sedation, positioning and disease contexts. The page should remain modality-specific rather than becoming a generic imaging clone.
