Diagnostics

Without a thorough examination of your pet’s bones, organs, and other internal systems, we can only make a partial assessment of their overall health. Our diagnostics equipment gives us the ability to literally see inside your pet without using invasive methods. Healthy and sick pets alike can benefit from our diagnostic capabilities. Not only can we see what’s going on beneath the surface; but we can also detect potential or ongoing problems that would otherwise remain invisible and go untreated.

Therefore, diagnostics are an invaluable tool for conducting comprehensive health evaluations and diagnosing diseases and injuries in pets. Call us at (414) 529-3577 to learn more or make an appointment online for your pet’s next consultation!

Diagnostic Services We Offer

We can detect and analyze a variety of medical concerns using the following diagnostic tools:

• Digital X-ray
  Digital X-rays for pets are a highly-efficient imaging tool that allows for visualization of the skeletal system and chest cavity. This technology uses minimal amounts of radiation and can help us see bone fractures, bone deformities, intestinal blockages, heart problems, and more.
• Ultrasound
  Ultrasound is an imaging technique that relies on soundwaves to create a real-time image of the abdominal organs. It can help us detect tumors, cysts, fluid in the abdomen, pregnancies, bladder stones, and other conditions. As with digital X-rays, ultrasounds for dogs and cats is non-invasive, drug-free, and painless.
• Laboratory testing
  We also offer a full, in-house laboratory suite that enables us to run tests on blood, urine, fecal matter, biopsied tissue, and more.

Why Diagnostics are Important for Your Cat and Dog

Routine diagnostics play a big role in your pet’s wellness and prevention regimen. Blood and fecal testing can help us detect parasites quickly and recommend a safe, effective treatment in the same appointment. Our goal is to build the most comprehensive, ongoing health history for your pet so they can always receive the highest level of care.
