Veterinary Pathology is the branch of veterinary medicine that focuses on diagnosing diseases in animals through the examination of tissues, organs, and bodily fluids. Pathologists study the changes in these samples to understand the nature and cause of diseases, which helps in developing treatment plans for affected animals.
This field plays a crucial role in animal health, as it aids in identifying infectious diseases, tumors, and other health issues. By understanding the underlying causes of diseases, veterinary pathologists contribute to improving animal welfare and can also provide insights into zoonotic diseases, which can affect humans.
