A method for analyzing particles in milk on-line during milking of a milking animal comprises the steps of: (i) flowing at least a portion of the milk as obtained during the milking of the milking animal through a measuring chamber (59); (ii) illuminating milk that flows through the measuring chamber; (iii) repeatedly recording two-dimensional digital images of illuminated milk that flows through the measuring chamber, the two-dimensional digital images being recorded through a lens system (49), preferably a microscope; and (iv) analyzing number, size, shape, structure, morphological structure, density and/or composition of particles found in the two-dimensional digital images.
