Linking the clinical features of ocular disease with gross and microscopic pathology, this book demonstrates the essential features observable during diagnosis. It addresses spontaneous disease of the eye in the animal species, with an emphasis on companion species. It is suitable for veterinary pathologists, and veterinary ophthalmologists.
Aims to present both general pathology and special pathology in one comprehensive resource. This fourth edition covers a brief review of basic principles related to anatomy, structure and function, followed by congenital and functional abnormalities and discussions of viral, bacterial, and parasitic infections and neoplasia.
Provides coverage of both general pathology and pathology of organ systems. This title includes explanations covering the responses of cells, tissues, and organs to injury and infection. It also offers coverage of genetics and disease, incorporating insights into the study of disease mechanisms, genesis, and progression.
Offers information about common clinical laboratory assays that are used to evaluate domestic mammals, including what assays measure, sample or assay conditions that affect results, and what results indicate about the physiologic or pathologic state of a patient.
Part of the popular "Secrets Series[registered]", this text provides information for reviewing pathology commonly encountered in clinical situations. Organized by disorder type, it features numerous photos, a popular question-and-answer format, and a detailed index that makes it easy to find information quickly.
Suitable for both veterinary students and practitioners, this is an immunology reference. It features a presentation of basic immunologic principles with information on the significant immunological diseases and responses seen in domestic animals. It explores advances in the field and provides clinical examples that clarify important concepts.
Describes how to produce high-quality radiographic and ultrasound images. This book covers equipment, safety, and technique - all major responsibilities of the veterinary technician. It details radiographic positioning for small animals, large animals, and exotics. It also includes a chapter on diagnostic ultrasound.
Designed to provide students with a foundation in understanding and interpreting histologic and cytologic preparations, Color Atlas of Veterinary Histology is a practical benchside reference focusing on the normal histology of eight common domestic species.
Provides veterinary students and pathologists with a structured survey of the complete field of veterinary pathology. This book supports understanding of disease and disease processes by visualizing how cellular pathology, inflammation, circular disturbance and neoplasia are expressed in the different organs and tissues.
Clinical Pathology for the Veterinary Team is a concise, reliable resource for consistently achieving high-quality test results in the veterinary practice. An essential bench-side reference for in-house laboratories, the book includes a DVD with interactive cases to build skills in reading and interpreting digital slides.
Organized by body system, this resource provides coverage of the structure and function of the cells, tissues, and organs of a range of domestic animal species. Bridging the gap between the physiology and the gross anatomy of organisms, it also explores discoveries made in the areas of molecular biology and cytogenetics.
Deals with the pathology of the common domestic mammals. Using a body systems approach, this book provides overviews of general characteristics of the system, reactions to insult, and disease conditions broken down by type of infectious or toxic insult affecting the anatomical subdivisions of various body systems.
Guides veterinarians and lawyers through the diverse and complex fields of alleged cruelty to, and unlawful killing of, companion animals, farm livestock and wildlife. This book is suitable for veterinary and legal professionals engaged in forensic cases involving animals.
Practical Veterinary Urinalysis is a comprehensive, clinically relevant resource for the veterinary laboratory. This bench-top guide covers sample handling guidelines, interpretation of dry chemical analysis, and recommendations for physical and microscopic evaluation.
Organised by body-system, this illustrated volume covers the normal histological appearance of tissues in a wide range of animals, both domestic and exotic species, with relevant clinical correlates emphasising the need to appreciate the normal in order to recognise the abnormal.
Accompanies and complements the teaching of immunology within the veterinary curriculum. Covers large and small animals, and provides clear learning objectives focusing on immunological principles while applying them to the disease process and to clinical practice. Case based and illustrated throughout in colour.
