Reliability of different sets of criteria in diagnosing canine atopic dermatitis applied to a population of 250 dogs seen in a veterinary teaching hospital.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: This study showed that each set of criteria had a low diagnostic reliability when used alone. The use of more discriminant criteria integrated into a thorough clinical approach excluding MDs should be considered. PMID: 30828878 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
