Pet Diagnostics

At Touhy Animal Hospital, we are committed to providing the highest standard of care for your beloved pets. As a leading veterinary clinic in Park Ridge, IL, we offer a comprehensive range of Pet Diagnostics services utilizing advanced technology and experienced veterinarians to assess your pet’s health accurately and efficiently.

Our state-of-the-art Pet Diagnostics services include:

• Digital Radiography (X-rays): Our digital X-ray technology allows us to obtain detailed images of your pet’s internal structures, such as bones and organs. X-rays are invaluable for diagnosing fractures, identifying foreign objects, and evaluating organ health.
• Ultrasound: Using advanced ultrasound equipment, we can visualize soft tissues and organs in real time. This non-invasive imaging technique aids in diagnosing conditions affecting the heart, liver, kidneys, and other vital organs.
• Laboratory Testing: We offer an extensive range of in-house laboratory tests, including blood work, urinalysis, and fecal examinations. These tests play a critical role in detecting infections, assessing organ function, and diagnosing various medical conditions.
• Advanced Imaging: In complex cases that require more detailed images, we have access to advanced imaging modalities such as CT scans or MRIs. These advanced tools provide us with a deeper understanding of your pet’s condition and aid in accurate diagnosis.
• Endoscopy: With our state-of-the-art endoscopy equipment, we can conduct minimally invasive examinations of internal structures, such as the gastrointestinal tract. Endoscopy helps us diagnose gastrointestinal issues and retrieve foreign objects with minimal discomfort to your pet.
• Allergy Testing: If your pet suffers from allergies, we offer allergy testing to identify specific allergens, enabling us to develop personalized and effective treatment plans.
• ECG and Cardiac Evaluation: Our ECG (electrocardiogram) services allow us to assess your pet’s heart health and detect any cardiac abnormalities.
• Blood Pressure Monitoring: We perform regular blood pressure monitoring, especially in older pets or those with specific medical conditions, to identify and manage hypertension effectively.
• Glaucoma Screening: With specialized equipment, we can screen for glaucoma, a serious eye condition that can lead to vision loss if left untreated.
• Cytology and Biopsies: For the diagnosis of skin lumps, tumors, and other suspicious growths, we offer cytology (microscopic examination of cells) and biopsies.
