Opis: Differential Diagnosis in Small Animal Medicine - Kate Murphy, Alex Gough

A vital pocket-sized reference tool for busy practitioners and students, saving hours of searching through multiple sources. Differential Diagnosis in Small Animal Medicine, Second Edition brings together comprehensive differential diagnosis lists covering a wide range of presenting signs. This new edition has been fully updated with alphabetised lists for improved navigation. The lists cover the majority of presentations that are encountered in practice, including both common and uncommon conditions. * Details differential diagnoses from diverse findings such as history, physical examination, diagnostic imaging, laboratory test results and electrodiagnostic testing * Provides guidance on how common conditions are, and how commonly they are the cause of the presenting sign * Useful throughout the working day for vets in small animal practice, the information will save hours searching alternative multiple references * New co-author Kate Murphy brings her expertise as an ECVIM diplomate * For ultimate ease of use this book is also available as an app for iOS and Android devices. To purchase the app visit www.skyscape.com/wiley/DDxSAMed2 Differential Diagnosis in Small Animal Medicine is not a book, it is a tool and very useful one. (European Journal of Companion Animal Practice, 1 October 2015) It will be handy for your clinical rota but I m certain you will keep it when in practice. (Vet Nurses Today, 1 October 2015) The second edition of Differential Diagnosis in Small Animal Medicineis an excellent resource for third- and fourth-year veterinary students on clinical rotations and new graduates who are in need of a compact, pocket-friendly reference with a problem-oriented approach to clinical cases.
