: This retrospective study analyzed existing, de-identified cytology images from client-owned dogs. No prospective enrollment, procedures, or sample collection from live animals were performed. Under the University of Florida Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) policies, which require review only for activities involving live vertebrate animals, formal IACUC review was not required. This is consistent with PHS/OLAW guidance on the scope of IACUC oversight.
