As laboratory manager of the clinical pathology section of Veterinary Diagnostic Services at the University of Glasgow Veterinary School, Ronnie Barron has gained extensive experience in multi-species veterinary haematology. This experience has been built up over many years of research support and interaction with clinicians within the veterinary school, as well as wider first-opinion practice and CPD teaching of veterinary surgeons, nurses and technicians in the UK and abroad. He will share his broad practical knowledge of near-patient testing in veterinary haematology, the effects of common and not so common pathologies, and the potential pitfalls of which to be to be aware.
Ronnie Barron’s CPD presentation will prove valuable to many veterinary professionals as haematology is a key diagnostic tool. It is used in many aspects of practice, including establishing the 'normal' for any individual animal by the use of regular monitoring; as a pre-surgical check along with clotting and clinical chemistry testing; as a first-line diagnostic tool at the initial presentation of new cases; and assessing response to treatment or monitoring a patient's recovery.
