DIGITAL MICROSCOPY

Dermatology, cytology, haematology and more

Our digital microscope is one of our vet Louise's favourite bits of kit! Equipped with an impressive 18mp digital camera that allows image and video recording of samples, this lab essential is the unseen workhorse of the KVS lab. Allowing rapid, often same day in house analysis - from skin scrapings and ear swabs to fine needle aspirates and blood smears. This helps us detect infections, parasites, and other conditions as soon as possible.

High quality digital imaging also allows us to record and share your pet's results so you also get a chance to 'see under the microscope' and in complex cases even allows us to process images for further analysis.

For example of some of the interesting samples and images we've seen recently please check out the gallery to the side.
