Abstract
Pulmonary disease is often associated with morbidity and mortality in feedlot cattle. The most common syndromes inÂclude bronchopneumonia, acute interstitial pneumonia, and bronchopneumonia with an interstitial pneumonia. Systemic necropsy is a useful diagnostic tool to collect information to enhance decision making about the health and management of feedlot cohorts. The study objective was to utilize gross necÂropsy and histopathology to determine the frequency of pulÂmonary lesions associated with 3 major syndromes and the agreement between gross and histopathological diagnoses. Furthermore, we assessed the consistency of classifying hisÂtopathologic lesions from 4 different lung lobe samples taken from an individual case.
