Veterinary Diagnostics in Mount Carmel, TN
Advanced In-House Laboratory Testing
Timely, accurate veterinary diagnostics are critical when your pet isn’t feeling well—or even before symptoms appear. At Mount Carmel Pet Hospital, our fully equipped in-house lab allows us to quickly perform a wide range of tests, helping us diagnose health issues and begin treatment without delay.
We offer a comprehensive suite of in-house laboratory services, including:
Rapid Test Results When Time Matters
In urgent care or surgical situations, time is critical. Our in-house diagnostics allow us to run pre-anesthetic bloodwork or test for acute concerns—such as anemia, infection, or dehydration—within minutes. This rapid turnaround means faster diagnoses, quicker treatments, and better outcomes for your pet.
Diagnostic Imaging
Some conditions can’t be detected with lab tests alone. That’s why Mount Carmel Pet Hospital offers advanced veterinary imaging—including digital X-rays and ultrasound—to visualize your pet’s internal organs, bones, and soft tissues in a non-invasive way.
Digital Radiography (X-rays)
Used to evaluate bones, lungs, heart, abdomen, and joints. Radiographs are essential for detecting fractures, arthritis, tumors, dental disease, and swallowed objects. Digital imaging provides higher-quality results and faster turnaround than traditional film.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound uses sound waves to provide a real-time look at soft tissues, including the liver, kidneys, bladder, intestines, and reproductive organs. It’s ideal for diagnosing fluid buildup, tumors, organ abnormalities, and pregnancy in pets.
Our team uses these tools to provide a more complete picture of your pet’s condition, often as part of a broader diagnostic workup. Combined with our lab capabilities, imaging allows us to form accurate diagnoses, guide treatment plans, and monitor progress—all with less stress and fewer delays for you and your pet.
Diagnostic Tools That Support Lifelong Health
Whether your pet is showing signs of illness or coming in for a routine checkup, diagnostics play a vital role in early detection and effective treatment. At Mount Carmel Pet Hospital, our combination of in-house lab testing and imaging services allows us to deliver fast, accurate results with the compassion and precision your pet deserves. We’re proud to serve our local community with dependable diagnostics for dogs and cats of all ages.
