Test Results

Results are available only to the veterinarian, clinic,
or other authorized submittor of the samples. Please do not ask animal
owners who submit samples through veterinarians to call the Laboratory.
It is possible under special circumstances that results may
be provided to an owner, but only with the prior written authorization
of the submitting veterinarian.
In diagnostic cases where several tests are requested on a single
accession, the results of each test will be reported upon its completion
rather than waiting to send the compiled results of all tests in
one final report. When results of the last test to be completed
are available, a final report of all results for that accession
will be provided.
In certain cases, such as export testing and special monitored
testing situations, the test results for a given accession may be
held until the entire case is final and all results can be reported
together. Any results that could have a negative effect on animal
movement would, however, be reported as a preliminary as soon as
it is know.
A paper copy of the results is always sent by mail to the submitting
veterinarian, except in cases where only faxed results are requested.
In addition to being mailed, results will also be reported by phone
or fax for a nominal fee upon request of the submitting veterinarian.
In order for test results to be faxed, a written request must
be made on the general submission form by checking off the appropriate
box in the space provided. The options are either to have results
sent by fax only or to have results sent by fax and mail.
