Document: Pathologic and laboratory investigations are essential when identification of the specific cause of bovine respiratory disease is needed. Considerations for planning a diagnostic investigation include the goals of the inquiry, the potential impact of the diagnosis, the plausible causes based on the clinical and epidemiologic appearance, and the relative merits of the available diagnostic strategies.
