Diagnostic test

Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective veterinary care. Our diagnostic services help identify hidden health problems, monitor existing conditions, and provide valuable information to create the best treatment plan for your pet.

We offer a range of diagnostic tests using advanced laboratory techniques, allowing us to evaluate your pet’s internal health and detect potential issues at an early stage.

🩸 Blood Tests (Haematology & Biochemistry)

Blood tests provide important insights into your pet’s overall health. Haematology evaluates blood cells, including red and white blood cell counts, haemoglobin levels, immune response, infection markers, anaemia, hydration status, and blood clotting ability.

Biochemistry testing helps assess the function of vital organs, including the kidneys, liver, heart, and thyroid. These tests are especially valuable for senior pets, animals showing symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhoea, weight changes, or those receiving long-term medications.

Blood testing can also help detect infectious diseases, including viral conditions such as FIV and FeLV in cats.

🧪 Urinalysis

Urine analysis is a valuable diagnostic tool that provides information about kidney function, hydration, metabolism, and urinary health.

A complete urinalysis may include:

Visual Examination
Assessment of urine colour and clarity. Healthy urine is typically clear and yellow.

Urine Specific Gravity (USG)
Measures urine concentration and helps evaluate kidney function and hydration levels.

Urine pH
Determines acidity levels and helps identify the risk of urinary crystals and bladder stones.

Glucose & Protein Testing
Can provide early signs of conditions such as diabetes, kidney disease, or other health problems.

Urine Sediment Examination
Microscopic evaluation for blood cells, bacteria, crystals, inflammatory cells, and other abnormalities that may indicate underlying disease.

🔬 Cytology & Microscopic Examination

Cytology involves examining cells under a microscope to identify abnormalities. It is commonly used to investigate lumps, skin masses, tumours, and unusual growths.

It can also help evaluate samples from body fluids and internal organs, including lymph nodes, lungs, liver, kidneys, and other areas where abnormal changes may occur.

💩 Faecal Examination

Faecal testing helps detect intestinal parasites that can affect your pet’s health and, in some cases, may pose a risk to humans.

A fresh stool sample allows examination for parasites such as worms and other intestinal organisms, helping ensure early detection and appropriate treatment.

🧬 Additional Diagnostic Services

Depending on your pet’s needs, we can also provide:

• Rabies antibody testing for international travel

• Routine health screening profiles

• Microbiology testing

• Endocrinology and hormone testing

• Therapeutic drug monitoring

• Additional laboratory investigations recommended by your veterinarian

Regular diagnostic screening helps detect problems before they become serious and supports a longer, healthier life for your pet.
