Description:
Pathologists in corporate labs have not used the microscope to evaluate slides for over a decade. In the recent future, this has also become true in small and large animal practices. Common examples are the SediVue and digital cytology. In addition, cytograms (dot plots) and the new IDEXX inVue DX (IVDX) provide a wealth of information on blood cell morphology. This seminar will use case examples to illustrate how this technology has changed the way we practice.
