Abstract
Diagnostic tests are an essential tool for confirming the health status of
animals. The global impact of diseases such as bovine spongiform
encephalopathy, foot and mouth disease, and highly pathogenic avian influenza
has revealed that diagnostic tests play a key role not only in facilitating
safe trade but also in many other areas such as the early detection of new
diseases and the control of exotic or enzootic animal diseases.
The market emerged from nascence in the early 2000s and has progressed
steadily. It is expected to continue its growth momentum in the near and long
term. The veterinary diagnostics market can be divided into two segments,
both of which are covered in this report:

The report breaks out veterinary diagnostics revenues into regions, including:
