Dermatology for the Equine Practitioner

This concise and informative presentation deals exclusively with the equine dermatological problems that the clinician is most likely to see in the practice. It is meant to provide a guide for the practitioner who must quickly diagnose and treat the problems. The highly illustrated format helps guide the practitioner towards an effective diagnosis and treatment plan. This book may also serve as a useful client education resource in the practice setting. The presentation progresses from a detailed description of all diagnostic tests and procedures, to clinical evaluation of the patient and test results, to presentation of the treatment options that are realistic for the condition involved. The drug information is selective and designed to answer the questions the practitioner is most likely to have. Treatment protocols for bacterial infections, pruritus, fungal infections and ectoparasitcal infections are discussed in detail. The title contains over 80 color images along with tables and flow charts that provide quick access to important diagnostic and treatment information.
