Highland Pet Hospital

Diagnostic Services

Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective treatment. Our in-house laboratory and imaging equipment provide fast results when your pet needs answers.

In-House Laboratory

Our in-house lab provides results in minutes, not days. This means we can often diagnose and begin treating your pet during the same visit.

  • Complete blood count (CBC)
  • Blood chemistry panels
  • Thyroid testing
  • Urinalysis
  • Fecal parasite testing
  • Heartworm and tick-borne disease testing
  • FeLV/FIV testing for cats
  • Cytology

Digital Radiography (X-rays)

Digital X-rays produce high-quality images with less radiation exposure than traditional film. Images are available instantly for evaluation.

X-rays help us evaluate:

  • Bones and joints (fractures, arthritis)
  • Heart and lung conditions
  • Abdominal organs
  • Foreign objects
  • Bladder stones
  • Pregnancy

Ultrasound

Ultrasound uses sound waves to create real-time images of internal organs. It's painless, non-invasive, and requires no sedation in most cases.

Ultrasound is especially useful for:

  • Evaluating organ structure and size
  • Detecting masses and fluid
  • Guiding biopsies
  • Monitoring pregnancies
  • Examining the heart (echocardiogram)

Reference Laboratory

For specialized testing such as biopsies, cultures, and advanced panels, we partner with veterinary reference laboratories. Results are typically available within 1-3 days.
