Turning early detection into early action.

Take a closer look at the ways our diagnostics can help catch problems early, so you can give pets the best possible outcome.

Vector-borne diseases

Tick-borne disease is more common than heartworm disease across all Canadian territories.2–5 In some cases, there may not even be clinical signs. Testing is the only way to know your canine patient’s status.

Fecal

Our tests can detect more types of parasites earlier than ever, without the presence of eggs, even in well dogs and cats. Even prepatent and single-sex infections can’t hide.

Cancer

Early, accurate detection of lymphoma is now a reality. Discover how IDEXX Cancer Dx testing can identify lymphoma in dogs, even before clinical signs appear, according to early data.6

Kidney

The IDEXX SDMA Test detects diseases of the kidney sooner, while reflecting other disease processes affecting the kidneys.7–9
