SMALL ANIMAL MEDICINE AND METABOLIC DISEASES 2ED (PB 2019) Paperback

Nearly two decades after Bryn Tennant's first edition, this updated version comprehensively addresses diseases and disorders affecting the organs of the abdominal cavity and the endocrine/metabolic system, using a case-based approach. With advancements in imaging technologies such as digital radiography and high-resolution ultrasonography, along with the increase in specialized diagnostic tests, new editor Craig Ruaux brings together a wide variety of fresh cases. These cases cover a broad range of conditions, including metabolic, endocrine, immune-mediated, inflammatory, and infectious diseases. They vary in complexity, from simple bacterial infections to intricate, multisystem disorders that would challenge most practitioners. Presented in random order, as encountered in daily practice, each case is approached with the specialized expertise and experience of the author in problem identification and management. The book includes over 150 new, color-illustrated cases and is authored by experts from the USA, Australia, the UK, and Europe. Offering a diverse selection of cases relevant to small animal medicine, this book is a vital resource for veterinary students studying internal medicine, as well as for specialists in training.
