Advance Diagnostic Care for Pets

Advanced Veterinary Testing for Dogs and Cats

Because our four-legged family members cannot talk to us, it’s important to have them examined regularly. If any problems are discovered during these examinations, we may need to perform additional testing to further assess your pet’s health. Tri-County Animal Hospital has sophisticated diagnostic equipment that can quickly and accurately help us diagnosis existing health conditions, as well as prevent conditions that could impact your pet’s health. Our diagnostic tools include:

Digital Radiology

Digital radiology is commonly used to diagnose bone and joint conditions, screen for cancer and abnormalities within the organs, and to locate foreign objects within the body. The image quality of a digital x-ray is much higher than a film x-ray, and allows for a quicker diagnosis and treatment. It also allows us to immediately send digital images to any radiologist or specialist that may be consulting on the case. Current technology allows us to discuss your pets X-rays with you in the examination room using an iPad.

Laboratory

We have an in-house laboratory that provides our doctors with rapid results allowing immediate access to critical information for our sick patients regarding kidney and liver function, blood sugar, electrolytes, packed cell volume and pre-operative screening for our patients undergoing surgery.

Anesthesia Monitoring

We use state-of-the art anesthetic machines for monitoring blood pressure, respiration, heart activity, oxygen saturation, and temperature during all surgical and dental procedures.
