Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Diagnostic innovation is reshaping modern veterinary medicine, enabling the earlier detection of disease, improved clinical decision-making, and stronger surveillance of emerging threats. This Special Issue invites cutting-edge research that advances diagnostic science across species and settings. We welcome studies on novel assays, molecular and omics-based techniques, advanced imaging, biosensors, point-of-care tools, and AI-driven diagnostic platforms. Contributions addressing transboundary and zoonotic diseases, validation of diagnostic methods, quality assurance, and integration of diagnostics into One Health and epidemiological frameworks are also encouraged. By gathering diverse perspectives from research, clinical practice, and industry, this Special Issue aims to accelerate the development and implementation of next-generation diagnostic technologies to improve animal health, food safety, and global disease preparedness.
