Aughey and Frye’s Comparative Veterinary Histology with Clinical Correlates, 2nd Edition

By

Vet eBooks

-

By Francisco Javier Salguero Bodes and Francisco Jose Pallares Martinez

Aughey and Frye’s Comparative Veterinary Histology with Clinical Correlates 2nd Edition covers the normal histological appearance of tissues in a wide range of animals, both domestic and exotic species, with relevant clinical correlates emphasising the need to appreciate the normal in order to recognise the abnormal.

In this update by two experienced veterinary pathologists and histology lecturers, new species, such as other companion mammals, aquatic species, and livestock, are introduced into each chapter along with a wealth of new high-quality images. A new chapter covers epitehlial tissue, and new techniques used in histology and histopathology are discussed throughout, including in situ hybridisation (ISH) and digital image analysis. Pathogenesis explanations are introduced in the current (and many new) cases of histopathology.

The breadth of coverage – farm animals, dogs, cats, horses, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish – and the integration of normal and abnormal tissue provide a reference of lasting value to veterinary students as well as veterinary practitioners and pathologists requiring a quick refresher.

The Cutting Edge: Basic Veterinary Surgery Techniques, 3rd Edition

By

Vet eBooks

-

By Jolle Kirpensteijn and Gert ter Haar

The Cutting Edge: Basic Veterinary Surgery Techniques, 3rd Edition. This edition has been prepared by various veterinary lecturers at the Utrecht University Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, the University of Ghent, and the Royal Veterinary College of the London University. Its goal is to teach students the essential art of surgery without having a specific species in mind. This edition is designed for an open-access web-based platform. Students worldwide will be able to use the information for their benefit while improving their surgical knowledge and skills.

The Cutting Edge: Basic Veterinary Surgery Techniques, 3rd Edition provides veterinary students and new graduates tools to grasp the principles of surgery, along with a discussion of the limitations and complications of surgical procedures. It should not be regarded as a complete reading text for all surgical problems and techniques but merely a basis for the inexperienced surgeon. Other textbooks will be able to provide more advanced techniques.

Previously published work by Dr. Wim Klein, Dr. Marianne Tryfonidou, Dr. Rien van de Velden, Dr. Peter Stolk, Prof Herman Hazewinkel, Prof Astrid Rijkenhuizen, Dr. Ruud Keg, and Prof Ludo Hellebrekers is updated and expanded. We value their expertise and thank them for their previous work. Mr. Joop Fama is thanked for supplying many of the photographic materials used in this book. The ‘Cutting Edge 3’ is an improvement of the Cutting Edge 2 (2006) and is translated initially from the first edition ‘Leren Opereren’ (2005).
