The IJVM journal is a peer reviewed research and clinical journal devoted to reporting original investigations and observations in the field of veterinary medicine with emphasis on the area covering the Middle East and the Mediterranean Basin.

The journal accepts review articles, original research articles and case reports. Diagnostic exercise presentations are also accepted. Although the scope of the journal covers mainly the Middle East and the Mediterranean Basin region we will accept articles from all over the world which may be of interest to veterinarians. We recognize that in the “global village” we live today research and findings in other regions of the world may have a bearing on our region and vice versa.

The Journal places emphasis on the subject of animal rights. Adherence to principles outlined in the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals, is implicit. The journal requires written author verification. The editor retains the right to reject manuscripts on the basis of animal ethical or welfare concerns.
