Diagnostic and Laboratory Testing at Heritage Pet Hospital

Diagnostics Services

Our veterinary clinic is equipped with state-of-the-art diagnostic technologies to provide the highest standard of care for our furry companions. Our digital radiography system enables us to capture detailed images swiftly, aiding in the precise diagnosis of various conditions. The inclusion of digital dental radiography ensures thorough examination of oral health, allowing for early detection of dental issues. Our ultrasound capabilities further enhance diagnostic precision, providing detailed imaging of internal organs and tissues. Complementing these imaging technologies is our full-service in-house laboratory, facilitating rapid and comprehensive analysis of blood work, urinalysis, and other diagnostic tests. This integrated approach to diagnostics allows us to deliver timely and accurate assessments, enabling us to tailor treatment plans to the specific needs of each patient.

Radiology Services

The adoption of digital radiography and digital dental radiography in veterinary diagnostics offers a multitude of benefits over traditional, film-based equipment. One significant advantage is the speed of image acquisition. Digital radiography provides near-instantaneous results, reducing the time pets spend under sedation and expediting the diagnostic process. The images produced are of exceptional clarity and can be manipulated for better visualization, aiding veterinarians in making more accurate and informed diagnoses.

Digital dental radiography, specifically designed for oral health assessments, provides highly detailed images that enable the early detection of dental issues such as cavities, periodontal disease, and tooth root problems.

Moreover, digital imaging significantly reduces radiation exposure compared to traditional methods, promoting a safer environment for both patients and veterinary staff. The overall efficiency, enhanced image quality, and reduced environmental impact make digital radiography and digital dental radiography indispensable tools in modern veterinary diagnostics.

Ultrasound Services

The inclusion of ultrasound as a diagnostic tool in our veterinary clinic brings a myriad of benefits to our patients and their caregivers. Ultrasound allows for real-time, non-invasive imaging of internal organs, soft tissues, and blood vessels, providing valuable insights into the health and condition of our patients. One of the key advantages is the ability to visualize structures in finer detail compared to other imaging modalities, enhancing our ability to detect abnormalities early on.

Furthermore, our commitment to providing specialized care is exemplified by having a dedicated veterinarian on staff who specializes in ultrasounds. This ensures a focused and expert approach to diagnostic procedures. The specialized ultrasound veterinarian brings a wealth of knowledge and experience, allowing for a more in-depth analysis of ultrasound images and a nuanced understanding of the specific challenges associated with interpreting ultrasound findings.

The use of ultrasound is particularly valuable in identifying issues in abdominal organs. This advanced diagnostic capability enables us to tailor treatment plans more precisely, leading to improved patient outcomes. By offering ultrasound services we prioritize the delivery of high-quality, specialized care to meet the unique needs of each patient.
