Veterinary Diagnostics & Imaging in Florence, SC
At Cashua Veterinary Care, we offer advanced veterinary diagnostics and imaging services to help identify health issues quickly and precisely, so your pet can receive the treatment they need without delay.
Timely Answers and Targeted Care for a Healthier Pet
Pets can’t tell us when something feels off, which makes diagnostic tools essential. Veterinary diagnostics help us uncover the root cause of your pet’s symptoms — often before the condition becomes serious. Early detection leads to earlier intervention, better outcomes, and less stress for both you and your pet.
From identifying infections and internal injuries to monitoring chronic diseases and evaluating unexplained symptoms, our diagnostic services are a vital part of your pet’s long-term wellness.
In-House and Reference Laboratory Testing
At Cashua Veterinary Care, our in-house veterinary lab allows us to run many common diagnostic tests on-site, delivering fast results when time matters most. Services include:
- Complete blood counts (CBCs) and blood chemistry panels
- Urinalysis and fecal testing
- Heartworm and tick-borne disease screening
- Cytology for evaluating skin masses, ear infections, and more
- Pre-anesthetic testing to ensure surgical safety
For routine and more specialized testing, we partner with trusted reference laboratories, giving our veterinarians access to a full range of diagnostics, from routine panels to advanced panels and pathology.
Pet X-Rays (Radiographs)
Radiography (X-rays) is one of the most widely used imaging tools in veterinary diagnostics. X-rays help us evaluate your pet’s:
- Bones and joints (fractures, arthritis, spinal issues)
- Chest cavity (heart, lungs, fluid buildup)
- Abdomen (foreign bodies, tumors, bladder stones)
- Dental structures (when used for oral health evaluations)
We also offer the option for AI-assisted radiograph analysis and consultation with board-certified radiologists when advanced interpretation is needed.
Veterinary Ultrasound
Unlike X-rays, ultrasound uses sound waves to create real-time images of your pet’s soft tissues and internal organs. It’s a painless, non-invasive method ideal for diagnosing:
- Abnormalities in the liver, kidneys, bladder, and spleen
- Cardiac enlargement or fluid around the heart
- Masses, cysts, or tumors
- Pregnancy (fetal viability, litter size)
- Intestinal blockages or inflammatory conditions
- Internal bleeding or trauma
Ultrasound is also commonly used to guide biopsies or fluid collection procedures, helping us obtain more accurate samples for testing.
Certified Radiologist Reviews & Expert Interpretation
For complex cases, we can consult with a board-certified veterinary radiologist who reviews X-rays, ultrasounds, and other imaging results. This added layer of expertise ensures an accurate diagnosis and supports the highest standard of care for your pet.
