Clinical Pathology in Animals

Dear Colleagues,

The theme of this Collection of Animals is Clinical Pathology in Animals.

The scope of this Collection is to provide a source for the publication of articles, reviews, case reports, and case studies covering all aspects of the clinical laboratory diagnosis of animal diseases. Particularly, we encourage improving the knowledge and comparative aspects between different mammalian species, including humans, and breeds with regard of clinical chemistry, cytopathology, hematopathology, hemoparasites, coagulation, and coagulative disorders, bone marrow and hematopoietic neoplasia, biomarkers of disease, hormonal analysis, endocrine disease, infectious diseases of blood and bone marrow, inflammation and inflammatory mediators, genetic blood and biochemical disorders, as well as assay validations and method comparisons. This Collection should encourage good contact between clinicians, pathologists, and biochemical experts to support daily work, scientific research, increase knowledge, and to facilitate coordination of clinical research in all species.

Constant work by experts in the many areas of interest in Veterinary Clinical Pathology is important so that knowledge can be extended both in terms of early and accurate laboratory diagnoses of animal diseases and in terms of new comparative aspects with human diseases.
