Dada sua importância na medicina veterinária e seu impacto na saúde humana, a tuberculose bovina exige atenção em programas de saúde animal em vários países. Novos protocolos de diagnóstico ante e post mortem estão disponíveis e facilitam a detecção e controle de doenças. No entanto, além das vantagens e desvantagens conhecidas de cada protocolo, há pouca menção sobre seus custos. Este estudo pretende fornecer uma visão geral sobre os aspectos econômicos dos testes de diagnóstico para controle e erradicação da tuberculose bovina.
