Diagnosing Animal Diseases BAG219
Study this course and gain a foundation that allows you to systematically investigate and determine health issues in animals.
Routine
disease investigations are based on clinical, pathological and
epidemiological evidence. If there is a need for conclusive
identification of a disease or condition, an accurate laboratory
diagnosis should be obtained. It is particularly important, especially
in the case of infectious diseases that the final diagnosis rests on
adequate aetiological evidence. In most cases disease investigations are
carried out by qualified government stock inspectors and/or
veterinarians. It helps for animal owners to understand and be able to
recognise diseases conditions that may affect their animals, so that
timely intervention can occur.
