What Is Wrong With My Pet?
Your pet cannot tell you how they feel with words. When they are sick or injured, we must use all of the information we can access to diagnose and treat the problem properly. At our East Texas Vet locations, we take the time to consider the whole animal in order to make an accurate diagnosis. An important tool in the diagnostic process is our state-of-the-art, onsite laboratory, which makes cat and dog blood work convenient for everyone. The onsite labs at our East Texas Vet locations allow us to obtain quick and accurate test results so we can provide your animals with treatment as quickly as possible.
Pet Blood Tests
In our onsite lab, we can perform blood tests to help us make the correct diagnosis when a problem is present. The bloodwork of your pet can provide important information to your veterinarian. Several conditions can be ruled out or confirmed with a simple blood test.
The technology available at The Vets of East Texas helps this potentially stressful process go as quickly and smoothly as possible.
Ultrasound
Veterinary ultrasound procedures are offered at our Fourth Street location in Longview, Texas, which provides non-invasive and invaluable diagnostic information for veterinarians. Ultrasound technology utilizes high-frequency sound waves to generate real-time images of internal structures, allowing for a detailed examination of organs, tissues, and fluids within an animal's body. In veterinary practice, ultrasound is commonly employed for various purposes, including pregnancy detection, evaluation of abdominal organs such as the liver, kidneys, and spleen, and assessment of cardiac function. It is particularly useful for guiding veterinarians in obtaining biopsies or aspirates for further analysis, aiding in the diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of conditions.
