The inspiration for this CD came from over 30 years of doing avian necropsies, obtaining lesion photographs and giving talks on avian systemic pathology. We felt that a guide with abundant lesion photographs and associated cytology, when indicated, would be of value for avian clinicians faced with the necessity of a necropsy examination.
With the advent of CD technology, such a project, using all color photographs, became feasible. We hope that this necropsy guide will be of value to avian practitioners as an accessible and practical reference that can be used in the clinical setting.
