Duluth Animal Hospital Diagnostic Services

Digital Radiographs

Radiographs, or X-rays, are one of the most common and useful diagnostic tools in medicine. At Duluth Animal Hospital, we use digital X-rays to examine your pet's bones, lungs, heart, abdomen, oral cavity and other areas and for diagnosing and monitoring many medical and surgical conditions. If we suspect your pet has a fractured bone, has swallowed a foreign object, or is suffering from a heart problem, a digital X-ray can tell us what we need to know.

Ultrasound

Ultrasound allows high quality, non-invasive imaging of the abdomen and chest. Many problems can be accurately diagnosed without anesthesia such as heart disease, liver disease, and bladder stones.

Endoscopy

High-tech fiber optics permits direct visual examination and biopsies of your pet’s gastrointestinal system. This allows for more accurate diagnosis and treatment of oral, esophageal, stomach, colon and even upper intestinal tract disease. Foreign objects may also be removed without the need for surgery.

In-House Laboratory

A quick medical diagnosis is the first step to providing your pet fast and comfortable treatment for any health problem they might have. In order to get your pet’s health results back in a timely manner, we operate a full in-house laboratory capable of performing bloody chemistries, electrolysis, urinalysis and microbiology.
