Saugus Animal Hospital’s diagnostic services include:
- On-site veterinary laboratory services that can generate test results within a couple of hours – or faster, if necessary. Tests commonly processed in our laboratory include skin scrapings, complete blood counts, blood chemistry profiles, urinalysis, and needle biopsies. Non-urgent testing and less common tests may be processed by an outside lab, with results available within 24 hours.
- Digital radiology and ultrasound to evaluate bones, muscles, joints, and internal organs and structures. Digital radiology is computerized, which provides a high level of detail and allows us to share the images and discuss your pet’s condition with you immediately. We can also easily send the images to a veterinary specialist if your pet requires specialty care.
