The totally revised second edition of this comprehensive Atlas describes
and explains the uses of diagnostic radiology and provides detailed
instructions on how best to apply this technique to the diagnosis
of traumatized dogs and cats, including a range of emergency cases.
The main focus of the revised concept is the descriptive presentation
of clinical cases.
The book consists of three main chapters: thoracic, abdominal and
musculoskeletal trauma, including emergency cases. Four smaller
chapters cover soft tissue injury, gunshot wounds, cases of abuse
and poisoning. The first part of each chapter reviews the basics
of the particular radiological techniques necessary for that section,
radiographic characteristics, indications for examination, and diagnoses.
The introduction is followed by numerous illustrated case studies.
Each case is discussed in detail relative to the clinical history,
the findings on examination, radiographic procedures, a description
of the radiographic features/patterns determined on evaluation of
the radiographs, a specific or differential diagnosis, and the treatment
or management received by the patient. Follow-up-radiographic studies
demonstrate the healing process in selected cases.
Veterinary practitioners will find ample material in the Atlas which
will help to reinforce or improve their clinical or technical skills.
Content: 1. General Introduction, 2. Radiology of the Thoracic
Trauma, 3. Radiology of the Abdominal Trauma, 4. Radiology of Musculoskeletal
