BSAVA Manual of Canine and Feline Thoracic Imaging – Tobias Schwarz, Victoria Johnson

Detailní popis produktu

To aid the reader with information retrieval, each anatomical region is approached in the following way: radiographic anatomy and variations; interpretive principles; and diseases. Information on diseases is further subdivided into sections covering radiographic findings and the results and interpretation of other imaging studies. Each of the chapters is accompanied by a wealth of images, demonstrating both the normal radiographic appearance of structures and the abnormalities associated with disease. Specially commissioned illustrations provide an extra dimension.

REVIEWS

"A book that should appeal equally to those with limited experience of thoracic radiology and yearn to learn more, as well as more seasoned radiologists. Likewise, this book is equally at home as a companion for exam study or dimply as a reference.? ( Veterinary Times, August 2009)

"The intent of the authors to provide an up-to-date, accurate, and comprehensive manual to be used by students, radiology residents, and practitioners has been surpassed. This text is a great addition to those currently found on the reference shelf in any small animal radiology area." (JAVMA, June 2009)
