Our in-house laboratory offers a wide range of diagnostic tests to evaluate your dog’s health and provide quick, accurate results. We perform several tests, including:
- Complete blood counts
- Blood chemistry profiles
- Urinalysis
- Fecal testing (including parasite identification)
- Cytology (evaluation of cells from various body sites)
- Fine needle aspirates (cytology using a needle to collect cells from organs or masses)
Additionally, we offer other essential tests like thyroid testing, heartworm testing, and more. If specialized testing is required, we have access to an outside reference laboratory for more in-depth analysis.
We understand how important your dog is to you, and we are committed to providing you with all the information you need to make informed decisions about your pet’s health.
Genetic Testing for Dogs
Genetic testing helps us understand your dog’s DNA and identify potential health risks. This proactive approach allows us to diagnose genetic conditions early and choose the best course of treatment. We offer testing for over 200 conditions, including inherited disorders, drug sensitivities, and more.
One of the most advanced genetic tests we offer is the ROYAL CANIN® Genetic Health Analysis™. This comprehensive analysis looks at over 200 genetic markers and provides information on your dog’s breed, ancestry, and potential health risks. It also includes personalized recommendations for nutrition and care based on your dog’s genetic profile.
Digital X-ray Services for Dogs
We provide digital X-ray services for clear, detailed images of your dog’s internal health. This non-invasive diagnostic tool is essential for accurate diagnosis and treatment, especially for dental procedures and orthopedic issues. Digital X-rays use very low radiation and offer faster results, making the process safer and more efficient for your dog.
Ultrasound for Dogs
An ultrasound is a non-invasive diagnostic tool that uses sound waves to create images of the internal organs and structures of your dog’s body. We use ultrasound to examine the heart, liver, kidneys, and more. It’s a painless procedure that can provide valuable insights into your dog’s health without the need for surgery.
Our veterinary team is highly trained in performing ultrasounds, ensuring that we obtain the best possible images to help guide our diagnosis and treatment.
Endoscopy for Dogs
Endoscopy is a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure that allows us to examine the inside of your dog’s body without the need for large incisions. It’s especially useful for examining the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory system, and urinary tract. The procedure is performed as an outpatient procedure, meaning your dog can go home the same day.
Echocardiogram for Dogs
An echocardiogram is a specialized ultrasound that focuses on your dog’s heart. This non-invasive test allows us to assess the structure and function of your dog’s heart without the need for surgery. The procedure involves applying a gel to your dog’s chest and using a handheld device called a transducer to capture sound wave echoes that create images of your dog’s heart.
Allergy and Dermatology Care for Dogs
Skin problems in dogs can be caused by a variety of issues, from allergies to infections. At Epic Tails Veterinary Clinic, we provide comprehensive dermatology services to treat skin conditions like dermatitis, hair loss, excessive itching, and more. If your dog has signs of skin issues, we’ll assess their condition and recommend the best treatment plan.
