Urine analysis is a valuable, yet often overlooked, diagnostic tool in veterinary medicine. It can provide critical information about kidney and urinary tract health, as well as the animal's overall metabolic state. Despite its potential, urine analysis is sometimes neglected due to workflow complexities or challenges in data preservation.

In this lecture we will share with you how to unlock the full potential of urine analysis, by reviewing the importance of a complete urine analysis, and an optimized workflow incorporates diagnostic imaging and computer learning.

  1. Complete Urine Analysis and what that means to clinical diagnosis
  2. What is the SediVue Dx technology and workflow
  3. Case examples

Registration ends at 11:30pm of 29 July 2025.
