Animal Disease Diagnosis

Animal diagnostics is a branch of science concerned with the identification of numerous animal diseases produced by external and internal sources, particularly microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and fungus. Animal disease is a change in an animal's normal state that impairs the normal functioning of its vital processes. An attempt is made to diagnose the disease before an unhealthy animal is treated. To determine the etiology of a disease, both clinical findings and laboratory test results may be required. Clinical findings include symptoms that are visible to a nonspecial and clinical signals that may only be comprehended by a veterinarian. A clinical examination would reveal whether the animal is in good physical condition, is eating appropriately, is bright and attentive, and appears to be functioning normally. Veterinary diagnostic laboratories assist veterinarians, livestock producers, pet owners, and biomedical researchers in detecting various animal diseases and provide a wide range of animal disease diagnostic services. Diagnostic medical testing for infectious agents, poisons, and other causes of disease in animal diagnostic samples is provided by the diagnostic laboratories.
