Measuring and identifying chemicals in non-human animal source materials is part of veterinary diagnostics. A clinical evaluation is an integral part of veterinary diagnostics. It provides the veterinarian with the information needed to identify the illness or illnesses causing the irregularities in the clinical signs. The capacity to diagnose animal diseases has greatly increased due to ongoing developments in veterinary diagnostic technologies, such as molecular diagnostics, imaging modalities, and point-of-care (PoC) testing. Along with improving diagnostic speed and accuracy, these advancements also help the industry, as a whole, to thrive as more veterinarians and pet owners look for cutting-edge solutions for complete healthcare. Accurate and prompt diagnoses are critical because infectious diseases, including zoonotic diseases, are becoming more common in animals. Animals are prone to age-related and chronic diseases, much like people. The need for diagnostics that can help in the early identification and management of illnesses, including arthritis, diabetes, and cancer, is fueled by the aging pet population as well as an increasing emphasis on preventative healthcare. The need for veterinary diagnostics is anticipated to increase due to the rising prevalence of chronic and infectious animal illnesses.

The veterinary diagnostic market has grown due to several factors, including rising levels of disposable income in developing nations, improvements in point-of-care diagnostic technology, an increase in the prevalence of zoonotic diseases, the growing number of veterinarians, and increased spending on animal health. Technological advancements and government initiatives are also factoring that support market growth. For instance, the first on-farm mastitis tests were introduced by Zoetis Services LLC in August 2023. In several European markets, Zoetis Services LLC introduced Vetscan Mastigram+, a quick on-farm mastitis test. In eight hours, a straightforward flow dipstick test can identify Gram-positive mastitis, allowing its users to know about the test results before the next milking cycle of an animal. Given that antimicrobial treatment is typically only beneficial for Gram-positive instances, this information can be used by a farmer or veterinarian to provide more individualized therapy and guarantee that antimicrobial usage is limited to cows that truly require it.
