Veterinary Laboratory Tests for a Complete Diagnosis
In our veterinary laboratory, we perform a variety of diagnostic tests to assess your pet's health as accurately as possible. These tests are essential for early diagnosis and proper treatment of contagious diseases.
Veterinary Blood Analysis: Biochemistry and Hematology
- Complete blood count: Evaluates the quantity and quality of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, helping to detect anemia, infections, inflammation, or coagulation problems.
- Blood chemistry: Measures key values such as glucose, proteins, liver and kidney enzymes, among others. It is essential for diagnosing liver, kidney, metabolic, and endocrine diseases.
- Electrolyte tests: Essential for detecting imbalances that can compromise your pet's health, such as dehydration or hormonal disorders.
Urine Analysis and Kidney Function Tests
Urine analysis allows us to detect:
- Urinary tract infections and presence of bacteria.
- Urinary crystals and stones, which can lead to dangerous obstructions.
