As pets approach their “Senior Years,” it is the time to become more concerned with the early diagnosis and detection of internal problems that are not readily apparent on routine physical examination. As an example, without appropriate screening, we would not be able to diagnose diabetes, liver or kidney disease, bladder problems, or other serious problems like heart disease. Unfortunately, these problems are in the very advanced stages before clinical signs can be observed. Much damage is already done.
