1st Edition
A practical everyday reference for veterinary practitioners, Diagnostic Techniques in Veterinary Dermatology focuses
on contemporary techniques for investigating skin problems in small
animals, horses and exotic pets. Written by experienced specialists in
veterinary dermatology, this book offers clear, step-by-step guidance on
how to perform tests and interpret their results.
The first book
devoted exclusively to the subject, this hands-on guide demonstrates
how to carry out and interpret a huge range of dermatology tests, as
well as how to avoid common mistakes and pitfalls. Featuring full colour
photographs and illustrations throughout,
key topics include: looking
for parasites, hair plucks and trichograms, dermoscopy, cytology, fungal
and bacterial cultures, histopathology, allergy testing,
immune-mediated skin diseases, endocrine and metabolic skin diseases,
infectious diseases, diagnostic imaging, otoscopy and examination of the
ear, genetic tests, and more.
Diagnostic Techniques in Veterinary Dermatology is
a valuable working resource for busy practitioners in first opinion
practice, as well as veterinary nurses and technicians. It is also an
ideal reference for veterinary students and specialists in-training.
