Molecular detection of pathogens in an equine fever diagnostic panel: 2019–2023
Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background A common diagnostic approach for febrile horses is to test for a panel of potential pathogens. Panels are curated by expert opinion and vary between diagnostic laboratories. Objectives To report the results of a newly developed equine fever diagnostic panel (EFDP) between 2019 and 2023 and evaluate the frequency of positive results.
