Interpretation of Equine Laboratory Diagnostics offers a comprehensive approach to equine laboratory diagnostics, including hematology, clinical chemistry, serology, body fluid analysis, microbiology, clinical parasitology, endocrinology, immunology, and molecular diagnostics.
Samples are tested every day (Mon-Fri) and results are available one to two days after the sample arrives at the laboratory. Consultation on Equine Lyme Multiplex Assay interpretation is available by calling the Serology/Immunology laboratory at the Animal Health Diagnostic Center at Cornell University.
Antech provides reference laboratory testing and professional consultation and interpretation services on a peer-to-peer basis. Our consultative specialists do not have the benefit of performing a clinical examination, nor the ability to conduct all pertinent tests on a patient. Our specialists rely on the information communicated by the veterinarian submitting the biological specimens, diagnostic images, or seeking guidance. By providing diagnostic results, advice, or guidance, Antech does not purport to diagnose or treat any patient. Test protocols and interpretations provided are based on recommendations from relevant veterinary or scientific literature and are provided as general guidelines only. Diagnosis and treatment decisions are the ultimate responsibility of the attending veterinarian with the established veterinarian- client-patient relationship (VCPR).
The Clinical Pathology Laboratory is a full-service laboratory that provides diagnostic testing to the University of Illinois Veterinary Teaching Hospital, referring veterinarians, and researchers. We are able to analyze samples from multiple species, including domestic animals (canine, feline, equine, ruminants, etc.), zoo animals, avian and reptiles, and wildlife.
Covering the basics of equine ECG recording, analyses and interpretation, this book provides a practical approach with details of how to get the most information out of your ECG recordings. The only book dedicated to equine ECGs, it includes:
ViTALS offers quality veterinary diagnostic services to external veterinarians through diagnostic service sections including anatomic pathology, clinical pathology, clinical microbiology, clinical immunology, clinical parasitology, and clinical molecular diagnostics.

Veterinary diagnosis is still underutilized in sub-Sahara Africa and therefore a missed opportunity in Sub-Sahara Africa despite the different approaches by different stakeholders and the challenges seem to be eminent. This study concludes that veterinary diagnosis is needed by veterinarians in the day-to-day continuum of care, the governments have also ensured that government labs are set up and used by veterinarians but with the challenges of location where most labs are set up far from practicing vets and farms, sample logistics networks have to be set up to ensure sample in flows into the labs. As well, more studies on factors for sample submission, public private partnerships as well as one health collaborative approaches need to be studied further to ensure sustainable veterinary diagnosis in the livestock industry. Trainings of veterinarians on laboratory results interpretation and sampling could also improve the utilization of labs in sub-Sahara Africa.
Our portfolio of veterinary tests is available for companion, equine, exotic, and farm animals. We offer full interpretation in a range of testing areas including biochemistry, haematology, cytology, histopathology, endocrinology, and microbiology. Our expert teams can assist you in making decisions on relevant testing and our scientific expertise is matched only by our customer dedication.
If we are not able to run a test internally we will find another suitable laboratory to refer your sample on, and provide appropriate guidance to interpretation using our experienced clinical pathology team.
This reference resource on veterinary laboratory diagnostic techniques and interpretation covers both hematology and chemistry for a wide range of species, including birds, repitles, amphibians, and fish.--From publisher description.
Veterinary Laboratory Medicine Clinical Pathology, 3rd ed. JR Duncan, KW Prasse, and EA Mahaffey. Iowa State University Press. September 1994, 302 pp, $42.95. The third edition of this classic text has been completely revised. New case studies have been added, along with new photomicrographs, some color, and a chapter covering reference values, quality control, test specificity and sensitivity, and validity of test results. As in the earlier editions, this update employs an outline format with case studies to teach a problem-solving approach to interpretation of laboratory data. Differential diagnosis of the abnormal laboratory value and the mechanism or pathophysiology of abnormalities in data is stressed, rather than specific diseases. The rationale for each test is presented in the context of the physiology of the component being measured. Tables list the diseases associated with various test results. Diagrams illustrate the complex normal and abnormal pathways involved in the metabolism of substances measured. Clinical cases supplement the text; photomicrographs depict cells and other structures discussed.
One feature of the text that makes it particularly useful is its practical approach to the process of laboratory examination, including descriptions and photographs of sites and methods of sample collection, cell counting, and staining. The book also has a useful appendix that describes in a cookbook manner how to prepare and apply various stain solutions and provides an interpretation of the results. A second appendix provides useful reference information (reference ranges) for a wide array animals.
