Dupont Veterinary Clinic employs technology and diagnostic practices that benefit your pet’s health. In-house laboratory and diagnostic imaging capabilities help us to identify the source of any problems your pet may be experiencing. Routine screenings are also fundamental to preventive care.
On-Site Laboratory
Our on-site, in-house laboratory allows our veterinary teams to provide you with results quickly and efficiently. We routinely perform:
- Blood tests
Complete blood counts (CBCs) evaluate white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets. We also perform chemistry profile testing, which allow us to evaluate liver and kidney health, glucose, electrolytes, protein levels, and more. - Urine analysis
Detects various urinary tract diseases and the presence of bacteria or infection. - Fecal or stool analysis
Identifies the presence of intestinal parasites.
Intestinal Parasite Screening (Fecal Analysis) is Critical to Pet Health

Of great importance to the health of your dog or cat is keeping them free from any worms or other intestinal parasites. Of greater concern, certain parasites can be transferred to humans and children are particularly vulnerable.
The best prevention in both dogs and cats is annual intestinal parasite testing, as well as monthly de-worming with a product that is designed to prevent both heartworms and intestinal parasites.
At Dupont Veterinary Clinic we use the most accurate method of parasite screening, Centrifugation with Sheather’s Sugar Solution. While this technique is more laborious and time consuming, it greatly improves the level of accuracy to protect you and your pet.
Radiology: Digital X-rays
Radiology is used to see within the body in order to diagnose disease and abnormalities. The introduction of digital x-rays has allowed us to take a big leap forward when it comes to ruling out disease and getting a diagnosis for your pet. Our state-of-the-art digital system allows far better image quality and faster turn-around time. Additionally, digital x-rays can be easily manipulated and sent electronically—useful if you need a second opinion from a specialist.
