Successful abortion diagnosis in ruminants involves input from the producer, practitioner, and diagnostician. Unfortunately, despite best efforts, many investigations still result in a diagnosis of idiopathic abortion. If this diagnosis is made after a complete and systematic investigation of appropriate and reasonably preserved samples, some comfort can be taken that practitioners and diagnosticians did their best for the benefit of the producer. As new diagnostic technology is developed for abortion diseases, hopefully this best will only get better.
在反刍动物中，成功诊断流产需要生产者、从业者和诊断者的共同参与。不幸的是，尽管付出了最大的努力，许多调查结果仍然是特发性流产的诊断。如果在对适当且合理保存的样本进行全面系统的调查后做出此诊断，则可以对从业者和诊断者为生产者的利益而尽力感到些许安慰。随着用于流产疾病的新诊断技术的发展，希望这种“最佳努力”只会变得更好。
