Diagnosis

The private practitioner decides about a combination of tests after consulting the Averroes Laboratories (ARL) specialists. The results of this combination will provide the veterinarian information about the situation in a herd of individual animals, and the diagnosis can then be made. The clinical signs on a farm form the basis for this decision. Based on the diagnosis, the veterinarian and farmer can take the proper measures.
