Gastrointestinal (GI) disorders are common in companion animals, but their diagnosis often relies on invasive or cost prohibitive procedures. GIQuest is a novel, non-invasive faecal calprotectin test designed specifically for dogs and cats, offering a reliable biomarker for intestinal inflammation. This presentation will introduce the science behind faecal calprotectin, the development and validation of the GIQuest assay, and its clinical applications in veterinary practice. Attendees will gain insights into how GIQuest can support differential diagnosis, guide treatment decisions, and monitor disease activity in conditions such as IBD, food-responsive enteropathies, NSAID side-effects and more.
- Understand the role of faecal calprotectin as a biomarker of gastrointestinal inflammation in veterinary medicine.
- Describe the principles, methodology, and validation of the GIQuest test for dogs and cats.
- Interpret GIQuest test results in the context of common canine and feline GI disorders, including chronic enteropathies.
- Integrate GIQuest into diagnostic workflows to enhance decision-making and patient monitoring in small animal practice.
