Fast Testing & Precise Diagnoses
Our veterinarians in Stockton use the diagnostic tests and tools housed in our state-of-the-art in-house veterinary diagnostic laboratory in order to accurately and quickly diagnose and construct treatment plans for your pet.
Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory
We use technologies like electromagnetic radiation and other technologies to conduct diagnostic imaging on our patients. These processes let us produce highly detailed images of your pet's internal systems and structures.
At Rosemarie Pet Hospital, we have advanced tools to help accurately diagnose your pet's medical issues. We offer a variety of services, from digital radiology to ultrasound and cold lasers.
Using these diagnostic imaging capabilities, our vets are able to produce accurate and efficient diagnoses for your pet's conditions and create treatment plans tailored to their individual needs.

Our Diagnostic Services
With our in-house veterinary diagnostic laboratory we are pleased to offer advanced diagnostic testing to allow our vets to provide an accurate diagnosis of your pet's medical issues.
- Radiography (Digital X-Rays)
Using a radiograph (also known as a digital x-ray), our vets are able to examine your pet's internal systems and structures to detect health issues which may not be visible from the outside.
Radiography is safe, painless and non-invasive. It uses only very low doses of radiation. Because the level of radiation exposure required to perform radiography is very low, even pregnant females and very young pets can undergo this procedure.
Radiographs can be used to evaluate a wide range of conditions affecting your pet's bones and organs. These include chronic arthritis, bladder stones, some tumors, diseases affecting the spinal cord and broken bones.
- Bloodwork
At our vet lab in Stockton we are able to run a number of common and specialized blood tests to determine the health of your pet, and to diagnose illness.
Some of the most common veterinary blood tests we do are CBC (complete blood count), white blood count, hemoglobin and MCHC, hematocrit, platelets, eosinophils, and blood serum profile.
- Urinalysis
Urinalysis is a key diagnostic test that provides your vet with essential insights into the physical and chemical properties of your pet's urine.
Urinalysis is primarily used to assess the health of your animal's kidneys and urinary tract system, but it can also be helpful in detecting issues in other organ systems and is important for diagnosing metabolic diseases such as diabetes.
This is a valuable diagnostic test for both healthy and sick animals and should be included in any comprehensive evaluation of your pet's overall health.
- Fecal Exams
A fecal exam is the microscopic examination of your pet's feces, which can be done at our in-house vet lab in Stockton.
The ultimate goal of a fecal exam is to identify and treat any GI infections that could be compromising your pet's health and even the health of your family. Fecals allow your vet to determine if your pet has intestinal parasites such as roundworms or hookworms.
Parasites can make pets uncomfortable, irritable, and lead to more serious conditions. Some can even be transmitted to humans.
Since these parasites live in your pet’s gastrointestinal tract, they are often hidden from view. The only way to detect them is with a fecal exam.
Annual fecal examines should be a vital part of every pet's routine wellness exam.
