This informative booklet presents groundbreaking findings from the study
conducted through the collaboration between Ceva and Padova University,
demonstrating the benefits of using lung ultrasonography to detect Bovine
Respiratory Disease (BRD) in veal calves up to five days before clinical signs
appear. By combining this early detection with a fixed dose of florfenicol and meloxicam, the study shows significant improvements in lung healing and overall growth performance in treated calves.
Based on peer article written by experts Anastasia Lisuzzo, Damien Achard, Alessio Valenza, Barbara Contiero, Luca Cozza, Eliana Schiavon, Giacomo Catarin, Fabio Conte and Enrico Fiore, this guide summarizes key research finding and practical considerations for veal calf health management.
