What We Offer
Diagnostic services at Deepwoods Veterinary Services are more than just tools for identifying illness—they’re an important part of keeping pets healthy through all life stages. With a combination of in-house lab work and advanced imaging like ultrasound and radiography, we’re equipped to detect issues early, guide accurate treatment, and monitor chronic conditions.
Every diagnostic test is performed with your pet’s comfort in mind, whether it’s part of a routine checkup or a response to a sudden concern. Our team is here to help you make informed decisions with clarity and care. Here’s a closer look at what we offer:
In-House Laboratory Testing
Fast, accurate lab work is the backbone of veterinary diagnostics. With an in-house laboratory, our team can perform a variety of important tests during your pet’s appointment—meaning faster answers and quicker treatment when it matters most. Services include:
Digital Radiography (X-Rays)
X-rays are one of the most effective ways to examine your pet’s internal structure without invasive procedures. Our digital radiography system captures high-quality images in just seconds, with less exposure and more clarity than traditional film.

Heart and Abdominal Ultrasound
Ultrasound offers a non-invasive way to view soft tissues and internal organs in real time. Unlike X-rays, which show shape and density, ultrasound helps us examine organ texture and movement, including blood flow and heart rhythm.
Cryotherapy for Pets
For certain skin growths or localized skin conditions, cryotherapy is a gentle and effective alternative to surgery. Using extremely cold temperatures, this technique freezes unwanted tissue, which then safely falls away as the area heals.
ECG and Blood Pressure Testing
As part of our diagnostic services, we offer ECG (electrocardiogram) testing to evaluate your pet’s heart rhythm and electrical activity, helping us detect arrhythmias or irregularities. Additionally, we monitor blood pressure to identify any potential cardiovascular issues such as hypertension that may not show obvious symptoms. These tools are important for pets with heart conditions or those showing signs of poor circulation or stress.
The Value of Early Detection
Pets often mask signs of illness, making it hard to spot problems until they’re advanced. Early diagnostic testing helps detect issues like organ disease, infections, and heart problems before symptoms appear.
By identifying subtle changes through bloodwork and imaging, our veterinarians can make timely, informed decisions about treatment. This proactive care supports long-term health, improves outcomes, and helps pets with chronic conditions live more comfortably for longer. Early diagnostics aren’t just about solving problems—they’re about protecting your pet’s quality of life.
