Result Warnings

The VETSCAN SA also displays warnings above the test results in a section titled SA Test
Results. It is best practice to review the images provided with every sample run.
The SA Test Results section will turn orange if "Review Images—Unclassified Elements Present,"
"Review Images—Bacteria Suspected," "Review Images—Multiple Elements Suspected," "TNTC—
Dilute and retest" and "Possible short sample" are indicated.
