Diagnostics

Doing more with in-house equipment

There are equipment trends changing how general practices deliver care: minimally invasive surgery, ultrasound, and panoramic dental imaging. Utilization of these tools presents as a learning opportunity to veterinary technicians and allows general practice to offer more services.

Genomics is too important to ignore

Genomics is simply the study of DNA’s effects on and interactions with all the other systems within a biological organism. What makes this field especially exciting right now is the sheer number of breakthroughs and practical applications making their way into human medical practice—and slowly but surely into veterinary practices.

Galápagos: Diagnostics in the field

With a permit from the Galápagos National Park (PNG) and the support of the Galápagos Science Center (GSC), a small NC State College of Veterinary Medicine (CVM)/University of North Carolina (UNC) Chapel Hill-led team completed a two-day health assessment of 28 green turtles (Chelonia mydas) and a single hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata).
