Canine Internal Medicine
A thorough yet concise guide to diagnosing and managing canine medical
conditions
The newly revised Fourth Edition of Notes on Canine Internal Medicine
delivers a comprehensive guide to the diagnosis of common and uncommon
medical conditions in dogs.
Written to act as a practical and fast-access subject reference for
veterinary practitioners and students, Notes on Canine Internal
Medicine encourages physicians to take a logical and evidence-based
approach to canine medicine. Divided into five sections, the first four
are dedicated to clinical presentations, physical and laboratory
abnormalities, and - new to this edition - imaging patterns. It
concludes with a section on the organ systems of canines, providing a
robust summary of how to diagnose and manage common specific conditions
of each system. This new edition includes:
- A thorough introduction to the clinical presentations of a variety of
presenting complaints, with both common and uncommon causes of each
complaint and a logical diagnostic approach
- In-depth examinations of common and uncommon physical problems, with a
complete diagnostic approach including lab results and key imaging
findings that aid in diagnosis
- Comprehensive explorations of laboratory abnormalities in haematology,
serum biochemistry, and urinalysis
- Practical discussions of diagnostic imaging patterns, including plain
radiographic, ultrasonographic, contrast radiographic, and
cross-sectional imaging
Notes on Canine Internal Medicine Fourth Edition is designed to be a
useful resource for all veterinary clinicians; as a handy point of
reference for veterinary students, recently graduated veterinary
surgeons and those returning to work after career breaks, but also for
experienced veterinary surgeons dealing with particularly difficult or
challenging cases.
