Explanations
Why is it needed?
Gastroenterology is a specialized field of veterinary medicine that deals with diseases of the digestive tract. Gastroenterologists are responsible for diagnosing and treating diseases related to the digestive tract, such as stomach and duodenal ulcers, pancreatic diseases, liver diseases, intestinal diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), infections, dysbiosis, and constipation.
Gastroenterology also involves diagnosing and treating feeding problems in mothers and young pets, such as during breastfeeding or when raising young pets.
Gastroenterologists may also recommend tests such as endoscopy, blood and urine tests, ultrasound, or CT scans to determine a diagnosis and treatment plan.
Gastroenterological diseases can have serious consequences for your pet and can be difficult to diagnose. Therefore, consult your veterinarian or clinic, especially if you have noticed symptoms in your pet's stomach or intestines. A gastroenterologist can help diagnose and treat these diseases to prevent complications and improve your pet's quality of life.
