About this course
This six week online course is designed to improve your knowledge and skills in interpreting blood smears and cytological specimens frequently seen in small animal practice. Participants will develop a logical approach to interpretation of peripheral blood smears and cytological samples through a case-based approach. It is suitable for all clinicians in small animal practice who wish to improve their approach and their skills in haematology and cytology.
Course materials are a combination of an online haematology and cytology manual, a multitude of case assessment exercises and discussion forums in which participants review and discuss cases with their colleagues and the tutors. Participants can earn up to 36 CPD hours. It would also be useful CPD for veterinarians preparing for the RCVS CertAVP C module C-VP.2 (Clinical pathology – laboratory diagnostics).
