Pet diagnostics are critical in helping pets recover from illness. Yet, many veterinary clinics don't have the tools necessary to complete diagnostics in-house. Our team at Animal Hospital of Loves Park, IL, is committed to pet wellness. As a result, we can provide in-house diagnostics and testing for your pet.
What Are Pet Diagnostics?
Pet diagnostics are tests that help veterinarians identify what causes pet illness in your furry friend. Often, these tests are performed in-house at a veterinary clinic. However, some clinics lack the equipment and resources to complete all types of pet diagnostics. That's where we come in. At Animal Hospital of Loves Park, we provide pet diagnostics such as:
- Blood Work: This can help identify infections, anemia, diabetes, and more.
- X-rays: We review the results to identify foreign objects in the body, broken bones, and more.
- CT Scans: By creating a 3D image of your pet's internal organs, which can help identify tumors, abnormalities, and other conditions.
Why Are Pet Diagnostics Important?
Pet diagnostics are essential, because they can help identify the cause of your pet's illness. Once the cause is identified, our veterinarian can create a treatment plan to help your furry friend recover. In some cases, pet diagnostics can even save your pet's life.
What to Expect from Our Veterinarian

We will work with you to determine the necessary tests for your pet and walk you through the results. In addition, we're here to answer any questions and help you make the best decisions for your furry friend.
During your visit, you will be asked to provide a medical history for your pet. This history will help our vet determine which tests are necessary. You may also be asked about your pet's diet, exercise habits, and behavior.
After the initial consultation, our veterinarian will perform a physical examination of your pet. This exam will help us identify any areas of concern. We may also recommend pet diagnostics at this time.
The next step is completing the pet diagnostics. This diagnostic may include blood work, X-rays, or CT scans. Once the tests are conducted, our veterinarian will review the results with you. We will help you understand what the results mean for your pet.
