Imaging & Diagnostics

Bayshore Veterinary Hospital knows the importance of timely and accurate diagnostics regarding your pet’s health. Our advanced veterinary diagnostic imaging tools help us quickly assess medical conditions and provide effective treatment plans. Our team has the equipment to monitor your pet’s internal health, including blood tests, X-rays, and ultrasounds.

 

In-House Pet Laboratory Services

​

At Bayshore Veterinary Hospital, our in-house laboratory is equipped with advanced technology, allowing us to perform blood tests, urinalysis, and chemistry panels while you wait. This quick turnaround helps our veterinarians monitor your pet’s health in real-time, checking for signs of infection, anemia, or organ dysfunction. Early detection and timely diagnosis are critical for creating an effective treatment plan.

 

In addition to basic tests, we can also run specialized panels such as thyroid, cortisol, and phenobarbital levels. These tests allow us to take a comprehensive look at your pet's overall health, making sure we catch even the most subtle signs of illness. Having these tools on-site means we can give you peace of mind faster, helping to keep your pet comfortable and well-cared for.

 

Full Body and Dental X-Ray Services

​

Bayshore Veterinary Hospital’s veterinary diagnostic imaging suite includes both full-body and dental X-ray units. These allow us to capture clear, precise images of your pet's bones, organs, and teeth, crucial for diagnosing conditions ranging from fractures to dental disease.

 

X-rays are a non-invasive way to gather essential information about your pet’s internal structures without causing them any discomfort. X-rays come with vital insight into your pet’s health when you’re preparing for surgery or investigating an illness.

 

Dental X-rays, in particular, help us assess your pet’s oral health, often revealing hidden problems such as tooth decay, infection, or gum disease that might not be visible during a standard exam. The technology allows us to plan appropriate dental care and, if necessary, perform corrective procedures to improve your pet's quality of life.

 

Ultrasound Services

​

Our state-of-the-art ultrasound technology offers high-resolution imaging that allows us to evaluate your pet’s internal organs with great precision. Ultrasounds bring detailed images of abdominal organs such as the liver, kidneys, and bladder, helping us diagnose conditions like tumors, cysts, or inflammation.

 

Bayshore Veterinary Hospital also uses ultrasound to examine the heart and lungs, coming with a thorough assessment of your pet’s cardiovascular health. In addition to organ imaging, ultrasound is invaluable for diagnosing orthopedic conditions, such as tendon injuries or ligament tears. By using the SDEP™ protocol, our veterinarians can make sure of the most accurate scans and effective treatment decisions for your pet’s specific condition.

 

Bayshore Veterinary Hospital can also send your pet’s ultrasound studies to a specialist for further interpretation, providing an additional level of care when needed. This makes sure that even the most complex cases are reviewed by experts in the field, offering you peace of mind and confidence in your pet’s care.
