Rick L. Cowell, Ronald D. Tyler
R2,272 Discovery Miles 22 720 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Cytologic and hematologic evaluations are important primary diagnostic activities for veterinarians. Approximately 50% of samples are processed on site in the veterinary office; that number is growing, as veterinarians seek to bring more laboratory revenue to their practices. In doing so, however, it is important for veterinarians and staff to understand correct collection and handling procedures to avoid costly errors and make accurate diagnoses. DIAGNOSTIC CYTOLOGY AND HEMATOLOGY OF THE HORSE is a practical reference that presents common clinical findings in an easy-to-use text/atlas format. Following a general chapter on sample collections and techniques, the remainder of the book takes a "systems" approach, followed by chapters on specific types of fluid. Within systems chapters, normal findings are presented first. Then, abnormal findings are presented by "class" of problems, such as bacterial lesions, fungal lesions, parasitic lesions, and so on, in the case of the eye. Algorithms (flow charts) on sample evaluations enhance text discussions by guiding readers to the most likely cytologic diagnosis. In addition, there is a colour plate section featuring 64 illustrations for quick viewing and comparing cell types and infectious agents. The detailed index will aid utilization of this edition as a quick photographic and textual reference.Logical systems approach allows quick access to information Updated information on all aspects of cytologic and haematologic diagnosis in horses Algorithms, a popular feature of the first edition, guide readers toward likely diagnosis based on sample findings Atlas section at end of book allows readers to quickly view and compare cell types to aid in diagnosis Completely revised/rewritten chapters on gastrointestinal tract, cerebrospinal fluid, and synovial fluid, reflecting new tests and methods of collection Completely revamped art program, with hundreds of new full-colour slides Updated terminology reflects current language used in the field (e.g., new bacterial/viral/protozoal species names)

Laminitis - A Horse-Centred Approach (Paperback): Richard Vialls Laminitis - A Horse-Centred Approach (Paperback)
Richard Vialls
R691 Discovery Miles 6 910 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Laminitis, a horse-centred approach describes in depth the current mainstream thinking on laminitis and suggests ways of reframing our understanding of this challenging condition. New thinking based on putting the horse at the centre of the problem is presented, allowing a better understanding of the biomechanics of laminitis. The book suggests ways in which damaged feet can recover, and also helps the reader to understand the pathological processes within the horse as a whole that lead to laminitis occurring, starting with an understanding of the horse's innate ability to heal itself and working towards interventions that create an environment that is conducive to healing. The book also explores the concept that laminitis, rather than being a disease in its own right, is merely a symptom of a range of underlying health problems that affect the whole horse.

Lameness is one of the major ailments of dairy cows. The distress it causes to the afflicted animals is reflected in decreased milk yields and an increase in infertility. Over the past twenty years, there has been a continuous programme of research in Britain and overseas into all aspects of the disease. In particular, our understanding of the changes in hoof growth around the time of calving has greatly increased. This enlarged and completely revised new edition takes into account all the recent research findings and presents the results in a readable manner. The highly illustrated text is fully referenced for students who wish to enquire further, but above all it is a straightforward manual for the practical use of those dealing with dairy cows.
