ABOUT THE BOOK:-
The book is an excellent reference for students and clinicians. The authors are to be congratulated on amassing and sharing their collection of photographs. (Australian Veterinary Journal, 26 September 2014)
That does not detract from the basic value of this atlas, which is well worth the price and will be of value to pathologists, pathology residents, and clinicians involved in equine disease investigations as well as to anyone performing postmortem examinations of horses. (Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 15 June 2014)
Clinicians who perform numerous field postmortem examinations are most likely to find it a particularly useful text. Similarly, this book will provide a sound reference manual for new graduates, interns and residents in equine medicine and pathology. (Veterinary Record, 22 March 2014)
From the Back Cover
Color Atlas of Equine Pathology offers a practical guide to identifying equine diseases, presenting a single resource with more than 1000 images showing predominantly gross pathology. Organized by body systems, the book allows for picture matching during or after an equine necropsy. In this user–friendly atlas, each chapter takes a common format, presenting the disease process as well as congenital, degenerative, inflammatory, and neoplastic sequences, with text boxes offering quick reference to key information.
The book begins with an introductory chapter summarizing the principles of the equine field necropsy, and subsequent organ–based chapters depict gross features of disease, focusing on macroscopic digital images supplemented by histology and immunohistochemistry when necessary. Some clinical information for correlation with pathology is included. Color Atlas of Equine Pathology is an essential resource for diagnostic veterinary pathologists and pathology residents, as well as for equine practitioners performing necropsies in the field.
