In-House Lab Testing and Veterinary Radiology

At Broomall Animal Hospital, we use advanced diagnostic tools to understand what’s happening inside your pet, especially when symptoms are subtle or hidden. Whether your pet is showing signs of illness or we’re screening for underlying conditions during a routine checkup, our in-house diagnostics allow us to act quickly and accurately.

From digital pet X-rays to same-day lab results, we combine cutting-edge technology with years of veterinary experience to support early detection, efficient treatment, and better outcomes for your pet.

Veterinary Radiology & Pet Imaging

Radiographs (X-rays) are one of the most important tools in veterinary diagnostics. We use them to evaluate your pet’s bones, joints, chest, and internal organs without the need for invasive procedures. Our veterinary radiology services help us detect:

  • Fractures and bone abnormalities
  • Tumors or abnormal masses
  • Heart or lung conditions
  • Foreign bodies or obstructions
  • Bladder or kidney stones
  • Signs of arthritis or spinal issues

Pet imaging is safe, non-invasive, and painless. The amount of radiation used is minimal—even safe for pregnant pets and young animals. Our team is trained to interpret results carefully and will walk you through any findings.

In-House Lab Testing

When your pet is sick, every minute counts. Our in-house lab allows us to run many common tests right here in our hospital for faster diagnosis and treatment planning. These may include:

  • Complete blood counts (CBC)

  • Blood chemistry panels

  • Urinalysis

  • Fecal exams

  • Cytology for skin or ear issues

  • Infectious disease testing (such as tick-borne illness or feline viruses)

Having access to real-time lab results is especially helpful in emergency cases or when monitoring chronic conditions. For specialized testing, we also partner with trusted outside labs.

When Are Diagnostic Tests Recommended?

We may suggest diagnostic testing in a variety of situations, such as:

  • Sudden changes in appetite, energy, or behavior
  • Vomiting, diarrhea, or weight loss
  • Coughing or breathing issues
  • Lameness or signs of pain
  • Before surgery or dental procedures (pre-anesthetic bloodwork)
  • As part of routine wellness screening for senior pets

Even if your pet appears healthy, diagnostic screening can reveal early signs of disease before symptoms show—allowing for faster, more effective care.
