Book description
Clinical Endocrinology of Companion Animals offers fast access
to clinically relevant information on managing the patient with
endocrine disease. Written by leading experts in veterinary
endocrinology, each chapter takes the same structure to aid in the
rapid retrieval of information, offering information on pathogenesis,
signalment, clinical signs, diagnosis, differential diagnosis,
treatment, prognosis, and prevention for a broad list of endocrine
disorders. Chapters begin with brief summaries for quick reference,
then delve into greater detail.
With complete coverage of the most common endocrine diseases, the
book includes chapters on conditions in dogs, cats, horses, ferrets,
reptiles, and other species. Clinical Endocrinology of Companion
Animals is a highly practical resource for any veterinarian
treating these common diseases.
