IMO a liver biopsy is REALLY invasive and I would not do it, unless they already were going in there for something else, like a spay or neuter.
Roxy's first BAT was 100.9 - we did the U/S and CBC and Urinalaysis and Coagulation - everything was normal. She has had about 5 BAT within the last year ranging from 62 to 85 - So both my general Vet and Internal Medicine Specialist feel she has MVD.
She show no signs of anything odd, so I am just treating her with a special diet and supplements. I will retest BAT yearly. |
