Allergic skin diseases are commonly diagnosed by veterinarians. Inhalant-related allergic diseases are especially prevalent in companion animal species. Intradermal skin testing (IDST) is the usual method for diagnosis of these syndromes, and is often followed by hyposensitization treatment if an animal reacts to substances during testing. A mail survey of veterinarians in the United States and Canada was conducted to determine current procedures in use for IDST and opinions on results of IDST and hyposensitization. Results of the survey indicate that IDST procedures are not currently standardized and that there is wide variation in the methods used. Opinion regarding results of skin testing and hyposensitization was largely in agreement with previously published patient studies.
过敏性皮肤病通常由兽医诊断。吸入性过敏性疾病在伴侣动物物种中尤为普遍。皮内皮肤试验（IDST）是诊断这些综合征的常用方法，如果动物在试验中对物质产生反应，通常会进行脱敏治疗。对美国和加拿大的兽医进行了一项邮件调查，以确定目前用于IDST的程序以及对IDST和脱敏治疗结果的看法。调查结果表明，目前IDST程序尚未标准化，所使用的方法存在很大差异。关于皮肤试验和脱敏治疗结果的看法在很大程度上与先前发表的患者研究一致。
