Why Are We Recommending This Test?

Diagnostics aren't about running tests just because we can. We recommend them when we believe the information may help us answer a question or change what we do for your pet.

If we're recommending bloodwork, X-rays, ultrasound or another test, we'll explain what we're looking for, what we hope to learn and how that information may change what we recommend next.

Radiology (X-Ray)

We’re equipped with the latest imaging technology, which means we can provide our patients with accurate and speedy diagnosis and treatment for a variety of medical issues. X-rays are regularly used to diagnose and examine broken bones, obstructions, arthritis, masses, and tumors.

Ultrasound

Another diagnostic imaging tool we use at Four Paws is ultrasound. Ultrasounds allow us to get an inside look at your pet’s liver, kidneys, spleen, intestines, bladder, heart, and other internal organs to diagnose a variety of potential issues.
