Description

This webinar provides a foundational framework for approaching the diagnosis of pruritus in veterinary patients. It outlines key differential diagnoses, including parasitic infestations, infections, and briefly touches on allergic reactions. While it does not cover the full spectrum of potential causes—such as all parasitic species or other differentials—it serves as an introductory guide. The presentation emphasises the importance of a systematic and thorough workup to accurately identify and manage the underlying causes of pruritus in animals.
