Pet Diagnostics Serving Langley, BC
Accurate and timely diagnostics are essential for understanding your pet's health and making confident clinical decisions. At Campbell Heights Animal Hospital, serving the Langley area from our Surrey location, we offer a comprehensive range of in-house and specialist-supported diagnostic services for dogs and cats. Whether we are investigating a new concern or monitoring an existing condition, our diagnostics team provides the information needed to support the best possible care for your pet.
Blood Panel and CBC
A complete blood count and comprehensive blood panel provide a detailed picture of your pet's organ function, red and white blood cell levels, and overall systemic health. Blood panels are used in routine wellness assessments, pre-surgical screening, monitoring of chronic conditions, and investigation of illness. Results are often available the same day, allowing us to respond quickly.
Digital X-Ray
Our digital radiology system allows us to assess bones, joints, the chest, and abdominal organs with excellent image clarity. X-rays are used to evaluate fractures, foreign bodies, heart size, lung patterns, and organ positioning. Digital imaging allows rapid review and, when needed, easy sharing with specialist consultants for a second opinion.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound provides non-invasive imaging of soft tissue structures including the liver, spleen, kidneys, bladder, and intestines. It is particularly useful for detecting fluid accumulation, organ abnormalities, and masses that may not be visible on radiographs. We offer both standard ultrasound and specialist-supported mobile echo and abdominal ultrasound services at our clinic.
Urinalysis
Urinalysis evaluates the concentration, composition, and cellular content of your pet's urine. It is a key tool for detecting urinary tract concerns, kidney function changes, diabetes indicators, and other metabolic conditions. Urinalysis is often performed alongside blood panels for a more complete clinical picture.
Snap Testing
Point-of-care snap tests provide rapid results for conditions such as parvovirus, feline leukemia virus, FIV, pancreatitis, and heartworm. These tests are performed in-clinic and deliver results within minutes, allowing us to make timely decisions when rapid assessment is essential.
Ear Cytology and Skin Scraping
Microscopic evaluation of ear discharge and skin samples helps us identify the specific cause of your pet's ear or skin concern, including bacteria, yeast, mites, or dermatophytes. Accurate identification guides targeted care and reduces the likelihood of recurrence. These in-house tests are quick and provide actionable information within the same appointment.
FNAC, Biopsies, and Histopathology
Fine needle aspiration cytology allows us to collect and evaluate cells from lumps, masses, or enlarged lymph nodes with minimal discomfort to your pet. For larger tissue samples, biopsies provide more detailed information about tissue architecture. Both methods can be submitted for histopathology analysis to guide further care decisions for your pet.
Titer Testing, Parasitology, and Fecal Testing
Titer testing measures your pet's immunity to specific diseases, helping to determine whether booster vaccinations are needed. Parasitology and fecal testing identify intestinal parasites including worms and protozoa. These services are valuable for routine health maintenance as well as for specific clinical concerns.
Echocardiogram and Mobile ECHO
For pets with suspected cardiac conditions, echocardiography provides detailed evaluation of heart structure and function. Our echocardiogram and mobile echo services are provided by a visiting veterinary specialist. Pre-booking is required. Please call (236) 500-9000 to inquire about availability and scheduling.
Geriatric Panels, Endocrinology, and Specialized Testing
For senior pets and those with complex health histories, our geriatric panels provide a thorough baseline for monitoring age-related changes. Endocrine assessment helps identify hormonal imbalances including diabetes and thyroid dysfunction. We also offer progesterone testing for reproductive planning, clotting factor assessment, tonometry for eye pressure monitoring, and in-house glucose testing for diabetic management.
