Diagnosis of animal diseases involves physical examination, laboratory investigation of biological samples at pro rata basis with the standard value at the onset of disease and after therapy along with advanced diagnostic imaging tools and techniques. Proper collection and preservation of biological
materials (blood, urine, faeces, milk, rumen fluid, synovial fluid, CSF) is utmost importance in any clinical investigation. Efforts have been made to describe livestock diseases and disorders in a systematic and comprehensive manner. Successful treatment involves disease specific therapy along with symptomatic and supportive measures on a case to case basis. For successful implementation of animal disease therapy, physician requires either single or combination of these methods. Different diagnostic techniques with methods and interpretations have been endorsed in accordance with revised VCI guidelines for the veterinary students, especially of clinical interest.
