Use the veterinarian's #1 reference on general pathology and the
pathology of organ systems! Pathologic Basis of Veterinary Disease,
7th Edition helps you understand and diagnose diseases of domestic
animals by using the latest scientific and medical research.
Focusing on dogs, cats horses, cattle, sheep, goats, and pigs, this
reference describes and vividly illustrates and explores the
pathogeneses of animal diseases, how cells and tissues respond to
injury, and the morphology (lesions) of this injury. New to this
edition is basic coverage of tumor, inflammatory, and microbial
cytology. Edited by veterinary pathologist James F. Zachary and a
team of expert veterinary pathologists, this book includes access
to an enhanced eBook with every new print purchase, featuring a
fully searchable version of the entire text, an image collection,
and much more - and available on a variety of devices. Clear,
up-to-date illustrations and explanations of the macroscopic
(gross) and microscopic lesions resulting from diseases occurring
in domestic animals Complete coverage of both general pathology and
the pathology of organ systems that includes the latest research,
practice, and diagnostic information on disease mechanisms,
pathogenesis, and lesions. Clear explanations of disease mechanisms
that describe cell, tissue, and organ system responses to injury
and infection. Easy-to-follow organization for each systemic
disease chapter including a brief review of the study of diseases
that occur in specific tissues, organs, and organ systems, with
basic principles related to anatomy, structure, and function,
followed by congenital and functional abnormalities and discussions
of infectious disease responses, helping students apply principles
to veterinary practice. More than 2,100 full-color illustrations
featuring color photographs, schematics, flow charts, and
diagrammatic representations of disease processes as well as
