Cortisol test
Diagnostic Applications
You
don't have to reschedule to assess adrenal function.
You can detect canine Cushing's syndrome and Addison's
disease with the IDEXX SNAP®
Cortisol Test. And, because it is fully quantitative, you can
continuously monitor treatment and evaluate your patients' therapeutic
responses.
The course of Cushing's and its clinical signs progress
slowly. Pet owners typically report behaviors/symptoms typical of
Cushing's for six years prior to seeking veterinary
assistance because the signs are attributed to normal aging rather
than signs of disease. Addison's disease once thought to be rare, is
now suspected to be a more common canine endocrinopathy.
