Abstract

In addition to a detailed clinical examination, certain diseases or disorders in cattle may require ancillary laboratory tests and/or additional diagnostic procedures before a definitive diagnosis may be reached. This paper provides a brief overview of a number of surgical diagnostic procedures that can be relatively easily undertaken in clinical cattle practice, including exploratory laparotomy, rumenocentesis, abdomenocentesis, liverbiopsy, pericardiocentesis, pleurocentesis, lung biopsy, needle aspirates and hoof biopsy.
