Specimen Setup

The Specimen Setup screen is where you define the sample types accepted throughout both VetView Labs and Hospital.  In addition to the specimen types, you can also define the allowed containers for specimens, the conditions of each specimen, and the gross anatomical site from which a specimen can be drawn (optional.)

Specimen Tab

All of the existing specimens in the system will load on the tab when you first open this screen.  You can sort by the columns, scroll through the list using the pagination, or search by the specimen code or standard code.  You can also filter out inactive specimens.
