Canine Hepatobiliary and Exocrine Pancreatic Diseases

Canine Hepatobiliary and Exocrine Pancreatic Diseases PDF

Canine Hepatobiliary And Exocrine Pancreatic Diseases Pdf Download

By Penny Watson

Diseases of the liver and pancreas can cause a degree of despair in veterinary practitioners: so much about the causes and treatments of these diseases is poorly understood, and too many cases remain idiopathic. Nonetheless, over recent years, clinical research makes clear that logical workup and treatment of clinical cases really can significantly impact both the quality and duration of life. There are very few, if any, clinical signs that are pathognomonic for liver or pancreas diseases, and the clinician must consider differential diagnoses for presenting signs. The first section of the Canine Hepatobiliary and Exocrine Pancreas Diseases with problem-orientated algorithms guides both first and second opinion practitioners through clinical assessments and workups, preventing oversight of potential underlying causes. The subsequent sections meticulously delve into pancreatic and liver diseases, encompassing clinical pathology, imaging, biopsy acquisition, cytology, and histology, all expertly elucidated by specialists. Loaded with informative algorithms, tables, figures, and videos, the Canine Hepatobiliary and Exocrine Pancreatic Diseases book caters to the needs of busy veterinary practitioners.

Feeding Horses: An Evidence-Based Approach to Equine Nutrition

Feeding Horses An Evidence-Based Approach to Equine Nutrition book

Feeding Horses An Evidence-Based Approach To Equine Nutrition Pdf Download

By Gulsah Kaya Karasu, Peter Huntington

Feeding Horses: An Evidence-Based Approach to Equine Nutrition provides evidence-based, practical horse nutrition accessible to all readers. Standing out from very dense, theoretical and practical horse nutrition books, it arms equine students, veterinary students and horse owners with practically applicable information, bringing theory and practice together. At the end of each chapter, veterinarian and equine nutrition experts Dr Gulsah Kaya Karasu and Dr Peter Huntington provide guidance on practical applications, calculations and the real-life use of information. For example, how is gastric ulcer formation triggered by traditional horse feeding? How can the risk of gastric ulcer formation be reduced with evidence-based feeding? Divided into four parts, Feeding Horses: An Evidence-Based Approach to Equine Nutrition covers the horse’s digestive system, types of feeds, formulating rations, and nutrition-related health disorders. Its scientifically validated, practical information will be invaluable for horse owners, students and trainers, equine nutritionists and practitioners within the equine industry.
