SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Designed with busy practitioners and students in mind, Small Animal Dermatology: A Color Atlas and Therapeutic Guide provides concise, thorough coverage of over 250 skin diseases affecting small animals. More than 1,000 high-quality images help to ensure accurate diagnoses, with coverage including clinical features, top differentials, treatment, and prognosis for each disorder. In this edition, author Keith A. Hnilica streamlines content for practical, everyday use in the clinic. The differential diagnosis chapter is updated for added clarity and easier use, and for quick access, chapters now list diseases based upon the frequency of their occurrence in the pet population. A user-friendly organization allows for quick and easy access to information on specific diseases. Vivid, full-color images facilitate accurate diagnosis of each disorder. A comprehensive drug appendix includes information about dosage, adverse reactions, indications, and contraindications.
