Skin scrapings and serology
What factor is most essential in selecting appropriate antibiotic therapy in veterinary clinical practice?
Understanding the antibiotic spectrum and resistance patterns
Choosing an antibiotic based solely on cost
Using broad-spectrum antibiotics for all cases
Selecting antibiotics based on animal size only
How do point-of-care tests enhance clinical decision-making in veterinary diagnostics?
They provide immediate results that guide treatment decisions
They require complex laboratory processing
They significantly delay the treatment process
They compromise the accuracy of the final diagnosis
Which method is most reliable for ensuring internal quality control in a diagnostic laboratory?
