The future of Veterinary Pathologists in current scenario of artificial intelligence

Abstract

Veterinary Pathology is the branch of pathology concerned with the investigation of disease and disease processes in non-human species. Veterinary pathology is a multifaceted field within veterinary medicine that focuses on diagnosing diseases in animals, a foundational discipline for maintaining animal health and, by extension, human health. Veterinary pathology encompasses diagnostic, research, and preclinical facets, each serving a critical role in understanding and managing animal diseases. Diagnostic veterinary pathology is concerned with the examination of tissues, body fluids, and organs to diagnose diseases in animals. Veterinary pathologists play a crucial role in identifying and characterizing diseases, aiding in treatment decisions and disease management. Research veterinary pathology relates to investigating the mechanisms, causes, and treatments of diseases in animals contributing to advancing veterinary medicine, developing new therapies, and understanding disease processes. Preclinical veterinary pathology plays crucial role on assessing the safety and efficacy of pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and other interventions in animals before they are applied clinically minimizing risks to animal and human health. It underpins all aspects of clinical disease management in veterinary medicine and is essential to biomedical research, human and animal drug development and animal health surveillance, which protects human food supplies.
