This concise, practical text covers the essential information veterinary students need to succeed in equine medicine and surgery, focusing on the nervous system, eyes, cardiovascular disorders and haemolymphatic systems. Written for an international readership, the book conveys the core information in an easily digestible, precise form with extensive use of bullet points, tables, flow charts, diagrams, lists, protocols and extensive illustrations.
Part of a five-book series that extracts and updates key information from Munroe's Equine Surgery, Reproduction and Medicine, Second Edition, the book distils best practice in a logical straightforward clinical-based approach. It details clinical anatomy, physical clinical examination techniques, diagnostic techniques and normal parameters, emphasising the things regularly available to general practitioners with minimal information of advanced techniques.
Ideal for veterinary students and nurses on clinical placements with horses, as well as practitioners needing a quick reference 'on the ground'.
