Newly revised and updated edition of a popular reference on many of the diagnostics and treatments seen in veterinary medicine

Small Animal Pathology for Veterinary Technicians is a veterinary technician student-based textbook that fosters an understanding of small animal and small exotic mammal diseases. It relates pathology information to the responsibilities of technicians in the clinical setting. The book offers in-depth information on a wide range of commonly presented diseases, providing technicians with practical information linked to their daily tasks.

Each body system includes a brief review of anatomy and function, full-colour pictures, and tip boxes to help emphasise important issues. A companion website offers images from the book, review questions, and case studies illustrating the process of handling the patient.

This newly revised and updated Second Edition includes a higher number of images to aid visual learners who are learning about these diseases for the first time. This new edition also includes information on diseases, laboratory diagnostics, and treatments that have emerged in the past 10 years, a new chapter on respiratory diseases, and a new section on disinfection.

Small Animal Pathology for Veterinary Technicians includes discussion on:

  • Infectious diseases of small animals, including prevention
  • Gastrointestinal tract diseases, covering the oral cavity, oesophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, and pancreas
  • Urinary tract diseases, covering urinary obstructions, acute and chronic renal failure, and bacterial cystitis
  • Ocular diseases, covering pink eye epiphora, third eyelid prolapse, glaucoma, corneal ulcers, and progressive retinal atrophy
  • Musculoskeletal diseases, covering bone fractures, hip dysplasia, patellar luxation, and intervertebral disk disease
  • Diseases specific to rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, ferrets, hamsters, gerbils, and rats

The Second Edition of Small Animal Pathology for Veterinary Technicians is an essential reference for faculty and veterinary technician students at academic institutions.
