Abstract

But, again, it must be stressed that the farmer will, by and large, no longer tolerate expensive laboratory and diagnostic procedures on any but the most valuable individual cows.

So what is the formula for successful diagnosis of liver disease?

As far as the writer is concerned there is one rigid rule. Just as one must never examine a cow without checking the udder, so one must never examine a cow, particularly a dairy cow, without considering the liver.
