Cortisol, a critical steroid hormone, plays a vital role in canine metabolism, immune response, and stress regulation. Imbalances, such as hyperadrenocorticism (Cushing's disease) or hypoadrenocorticism (Addison's disease), can significantly impact a dog's health. Tashikin's Canine Cortisol (cCORT) Test Kit provides veterinarians with a reliable and quantitative tool to accurately measure cortisol levels, enabling timely diagnosis, effective treatment monitoring, and improved patient outcomes for dogs with suspected adrenal disorders.
Your Path to a Confident Diagnosis:
Investigate Endocrine Imbalances
Quickly identify abnormal cortisol levels in dogs presenting with symptoms of Cushing's or Addison's disease.
Confirm Adrenal Dysfunction
Utilize quantitative results to support definitive diagnosis of hyper- or hypoadrenocorticism.
Monitor Treatment Efficacy
Track cortisol levels over time to optimize medication dosages and assess patient response to therapy.
