Exotic Animal Medicine Review & Test is an excellent resource for students and clinicians in general practice who want to deepen their understanding of this fascinating field. Authored by renowned avian specialist Jaime Samour and a team of international contributors from 13 countries, the book presents 80 carefully selected clinical cases involving mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish commonly kept as pets, as well as cases from zoological collections, captive breeding centers, and rescue and rehabilitation facilities worldwide.
Each case is presented in a structured format, using descriptive images, clinical and laboratory data to challenge readers to formulate differential diagnoses, recommend treatment options, offer prognosis, and suggest preventive measures. The book concludes each case with the definitive diagnosis, treatment, prevention strategies, and final comments. A list of suggested readings further enhances the reader's knowledge.
This comprehensive reference allows readers to dive deeper into cases with more imagery and detailed background than most other sources. It's an ideal tool for the ongoing education of busy clinicians and for veterinary trainees looking to test their diagnostic skills. A selection of interactive cases is also available on a companion website optimized for mobile devices, offering a fully interactive experience for self-testing.
