Hi Tech, Low Cost Analysis

A vet practice is equipped with a high specification laboratory analyser from Synermed, which enables your vet to offer the best possible screening and monitoring of your pet's health.The following panel of tests might be run on a small blood sample taken from your cat or dog:

• Glucose to check for diabetes
• ALT to check liver status
• Creatinine to check kidney function
• Total Protein to check for infections and liver function
• Calcium to check for tumours, parathyroid status and bone health
• ALP to check intestine, bone and liver health

and for older pets:

• Thyroxine to check thyroid function

REMEMBER AN ABNORMAL RESULT DOES NOT ALWAYS MEAN THAT A DISORDER EXISTS;
BUT IT IS GROUNDS FOR RE-CHECKING OR FURTHER INVESTIGATION.
