ERG is used to assess retinal function in animals and is an extremely valuable diagnostic tool for veterinary ophthalmologists and researchers. ERG testing is indispensable before cataract surgery to rule out retinal degenerations and the RETevet is an invaluable tool for diagnosing various inherited and acquired retinal diseases — especially when ophthalmoscopic abnormalities are not present.
ERG testing can be conducted with the RETevet despite the presence of media opacities, and it provides veterinarians with vital information about retinal function.
Detect various inherited and acquired retinal diseases
Predict the outcome of cataract surgery and disease progression
Differentiate between retinal and post-retinal causes of animal blindness
Ensure the absence of retinal disease for breeding, research, or certification purposes
Animal ERG testing with the RETevet can quickly and easily detect and determine a wide range of diagnostic information, aiding veterinarians and researchers with comprehensive data on how the retina is functioning and/or changing.
RETevet testing uses ECVO and ISCEV non-human protocols
Early identification and monitoring of inherited retinal conditions such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA), hemeralopia (day blindness), and Congenital Stationary Night Blindness (CSNB), and more.
Assist in differential diagnoses of Sudden Acquired Retinal Degeneration (SARDS) or Optic Neuritis. Evaluate retinal detachments, and conditions such as Feline central retinal degeneration (FCRD).
Quickly evaluate retinal conditions with the only test (ERG) not affected by media opacities. Diagnose retinal disorders even when no ophthalmoscopic abnormalities are detected.
Clear reports with numeric values available in 17 languages help to confirm or exclude retina disease.
Its clear content is a valuable tool to communicate with the pet owner about the prognosis of disease, surgical outcomes, cataract recomendations, and breeding certification.
