How to get the most out of cytology samples for Nurses
(Con impuestos)
In this webinar we will discuss practical tips on how to improve cytology sample collection and preparation. We will cover dos and don'ts of sample processing and staining, including different sample types such as aspirates, impression smears, fluids, and urine. Finally, we will talk about how to correctly set up the microscope and how to determine if a cytological sample is diagnostic or not. There will also be time to discuss any questions you may have encountered during your daily work pertinent to cytology samples. This webinar is aimed at veterinary nurses who want to take over more responsibility in the practice laboratory with the goal to optimise first opinion cytology diagnostics.
