Color Atlas of Equine Pathology offers a practical guideto identifying equine diseases, presenting a single resource withmore than 1000 images showing predominantly gross pathology.Organized by body systems, the book allows for picture matchingduring or after an equine necropsy. In this user-friendly atlas,each chapter takes a common format, presenting the disease processas well as congenital, degenerative, inflammatory, and neoplasticsequences, with text boxes offering quick reference to keyinformation.
The book begins with an introductory chapter summarizing theprinciples of the equine field necropsy, and subsequent organ-basedchapters depict gross features of disease, focusing on macroscopicdigital images supplemented by histology and immunohistochemistrywhen necessary. Some clinical information for correlationwith pathology is included. Color Atlas of EquinePathology is an essential resource for diagnostic veterinarypathologists and pathology residents, as well as for equinepractitioners performing necropsies in the field.
