Ear Cytology: A Test We Too Often Skip With Dr. Layne & Dr. Belew

Ear cytology gives us information that a visual examination—or even sniff test—simply cannot, yet we too often forgo this essential diagnostic step. In this episode of the Partner Podcast, Dr. Beth talks with Liz Layne, DVM, DACVD, and Christi Belew, DVM, about the role of cytology in otitis externa management. They share practical tips for interpreting samples and explore how emerging analyzer technology is bringing a new level of consistency and accuracy to in-clinic results.
