Effective treatment hinges on accurate diagnostics. That's why at Veterinary Specialty Center of Stillwater (VSCS), we've invested in an array of advanced diagnostic tools and specialty equipment. We're dedicated to ensuring that each diagnosis is not only precise, but also serves as a solid foundation for the subsequent care and treatment your pet will receive.

In-House Bloodwork: Prompt and Precise

  • Our quick, point-of-care blood parameter evaluation is especially valuable for critical patients.
  • With our in-house bloodwork capabilities, we can swiftly determine vital information such as lactate and glucose levels, electrolyte or kidney disturbances, or blood volume levels.
  • For routine tests, we collaborate with trusted outside laboratories to ensure comprehensive results.

Advanced Imaging for In-Depth Insights

  • CT (64-slice): Our state-of-the-art CT scanner provides quick and detailed images, allowing us to thoroughly understand and diagnose disease processes or to accurately map them for surgical intervention.
  • Digital X-ray: We offer instantaneous imaging, ensuring that your pet's condition is diagnosed without delay. If necessary, our images can be sent to a specialized radiologist for expert interpretation.
  • C-Arm Fluoroscopy: This cutting-edge technology aids our surgical procedures, enabling minimally invasive treatments with fewer or smaller skin incisions. Whether guiding needles in the spine for laser disk ablation or placing screws for fracture repair, C-Arm Fluoroscopy is an invaluable tool in our surgical suite.

Specialized Treatments for Special Patients
