Beneath The Surface: Advanced Diagnostics for Dogs
For a comprehensive assessment of your dog's health, we utilize advanced imaging and diagnostic tools to detect subtle changes and diagnose injuries or illnesses. Our Fairfax animal hospital is equipped with state-of-the-art technology, enabling us to quickly obtain accurate results for your canine companion. All our digital imaging diagnostics are reviewed by a board-certified radiologist.
Diagnostic Services for Dogs
Ultrasound
For a clearer look at your dog's abdominal organs, we use ultrasound technology. This non-invasive procedure produces real-time, 2D images of internal structures, allowing us to evaluate organ texture, shape, and blood supply.
In-House Laboratory
Our in-house lab allows us to quickly analyze blood, fecal, and urine samples. This is particularly critical in emergency situations where timely results can make a significant difference in your dog's treatment plan. Most results are available
within 1-2 hours.
Digital X-Rays
Digital X-ray imaging helps us detect various health concerns in dogs, including:
- Arthritis
- Bone fractures
- Foreign bodies
- Hip dysplasia
- Tumors
- Dental damage below the gum line
CT Unit
CT imaging provides a detailed, three-dimensional view of your dog's internal body structures. This advanced tool helps in detecting and treating conditions affecting tissues and organs with greater precision. While we do not offer CT scans at our Fairfax location, Columbia Pike Animal Hospital in Annandale can provide this service.
