- Examples of cytology at a basic price: 1 site: up to 4 SLD, 1x liquid/lavage plus 2 SLD
- Examples of cytology with higher costs: 1 site: 5–6 SLD, 2 sites up to 4 SLD per site, liquid/lavage plus more than 2 SLD or several liquids - Quick analysis of digital images via image upload in „MyLab“: To get a veterinary diagnosis, you can upload up to 4 images of a cytological preparation from your practice with your diagnostic task via the image analysis „Digital Cytology“ in the password-protected area of our „MyLab“ website.
