What is Cytology?
Cytology is an examination of a sample using a microscope. The sample is first processed so that certain features are easier to see under the microscope.
In veterinary medicine, it is most frequently used to look at material collected from an animal's ears to try to determine what might be causing symptoms.
Studies show that ear swabs collected by pet owners at home provide the same results as samples collected in the clinic.
FetchDx mail-in test kits from QSM Diagnostics provide you with test results in a few days and much-needed peace of mind. This is the gold standard of care test that should be done to best diagnose and treat a bacterial ear infection (bacterial culture identification).
And you can keep tests on hand for when your dog starts to display symptoms of infection.
