This concise, practical text covers the essential information veterinary students need to succeed in Equine medicine and surgery, focusing on skin, urinary, liver and endocrine diseases. Written for an international readership, the book includes a glossary of terms and conveys the core information in an easily digestible, precise form with extensive use of bullet-points, tables, flow-charts, diagrams, lists, protocols and extensive illustration. Part of a five-book series that extracts and updates key information from Munroe’s Equine Surgery, Reproduction and Medicine, Second Edition, the book distils best practice in a logical straightforward clinical-based approach. It details clinical anatomy, physical clinical examination techniques, diagnostic techniques and normal parameters, emphasising the things regularly available to general practitioners with minimal information of advanced techniques. The liver section is divided into clinical evaluation, diagnostic tests, possible causes and treatment. The diagnostic approach to endocrine disease is followed by specific diseases of the thyroid, parathyroid, pituitary gland, equine metabolic syndrome and other miscellaneous disorders. The approach to urinary tract problems includes information on diagnostic tests and imaging, renal diseases, and diseases of the ureters, bladder and urethra. The approach to skin disease is discussed in detail, including relevant diagnostic tests. Following this, individual skin diseases are covered under the headings of genetic, infectious, immune-mediated, nutritional, endocrine, idiopathic, traumatic and neoplastic causes. Finally, skin wounds, burns, and infections of synovial structures are discussed. Ideal for veterinary students and nurses on clinical placements with horses as well as practitioners needing a quick reference ‘on the ground’. The spiralbound format allows the book to lie open during practice.

It details clinical anatomy, physical clinical examination techniques, diagnostic techniques and normal parameters, emphasising the things regularly available to general practitioners with minimal information of advanced techniques. The nervous system section discusses in detail the neurological exam, mentions relevant diagnostic tests, and divides the diseases of the system into congenital, infectious, traumatic, toxin-induced and miscellaneous causes. In the eye section, the relevant anatomy and the examination of the eye are followed by discussion of useful diagnostic tests and procedures. Diseases of the eye are discussed under the headings of congenital/neonatal, tumours, infectious and inflammatory disorders, neurological based, and parasitic problems. The cardiological examination and relevant diagnostic tests are followed by sections on arrhythmias, congenital and acquired cardiac diseases, pericardial disease and miscellaneous cardiovascular disease. Finally, the haemolymphatic section discusses in detail relevant diagnostic approaches and laboratory aids, followed by sections on anaemia, haemostasis disorders, infections and neoplasia. Ideal for veterinary students and nurses on clinical placements with horses as well as practitioners needing a quick reference ‘on the ground’. The spiralbound format allows the book to lie open during practice.

With advancing technology, students are getting accustomed to evermore portable resources on their phones - quick reference texts are therefore required to compete with this shift in approach. Where easy layouts assist with faster clinical reasoning, or ambulatory practice provides poor signal, printed text still out-competes digital technologies. Affordable and concise, this visually engaging textbook is easy to use as a revision aid and take on placement (veterinary EMS - Extra-mural studies). The spiralbound format allows it to lay flat when referred to in practice, adding another level of practical use. The emphasis is on those things regularly available to general practitioners with minimal information of advanced techniques. Similar to the popular MiniVet guide, but for Equine: fills a gap for a concise, quick and easy practical reference for students in Equine practice. There’s a clear market for books that focus on best practices, protocols, flowcharts and treatment management for equine pathologies and thus provide a direct clinical approach to cases and clinical reasoning. The book is clearly divided into sub-sections, i.e., etiology, differential diagnosis etc. This makes it simple to follow and useful to apply to cases. The high quantity of pictures and diagrams help understanding of each different condition. International readership Can be bought as a single text or as a package with other books in the Equine Concise Textbook series Distills key information from 'Equine Clinical Medicine, Surgery and Reproduction 2E' which has previously been out of the student price range.

This fully-revised new edition of the best-selling Equine Clinical Medicine, Surgery and Reproduction is supported by over 1800 illustrations of the highest quality: colour photographs, diagnostic images including MRI and CT, and diagrams. System-based, the chapters introduce each individual system with precise information on the relevant basic anatomy and physiology, standard clinical examination techniques and useful differential diagnostic aids. This is followed by diseases and disorders that are pertinent to that system, grouped together either anatomically or based on presenting clinical signs. Each condition is described using consistent headings: definition/overview, etiology and pathophysiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, differential diagnoses, management/treatment, and prognosis. Additional chapters deal with the foal and wounds. New to the second edition: - All chapters are updated throughout - Additional chapters on the axial musculoskeletal system (neck, back and pelvis) and muscle diseases and problems - A whole new section on soft tissue injuries of the foot - More information on diagnostic tests including over-ground endoscopy, chest and liver ultrasonography, head CT, and foot MRI - Material on equine dentistry, neurology, endocrine system, the foal, and the liver has been considerably expanded - All illustrations and photographs have been reviewed and many replaced with higher quality images. The focus throughout remains on providing clinically relevant information required for practical case management, plus sufficient background on causes and disease processes to enable readers to understand the conditions and the rationale for diagnostic and treatment options. An international group of respected clinicians have come together under the editorship of Dr Graham Munroe to create a textbook that will be of lasting value as a teaching and training resource for equine clinical teachers and their students in veterinary medicine and related equine courses, as well as a ready reference for non-specialist mixed or equine clinical practitioners
