Presenting more than 266 full color anatomic drawings arranged by organ system, this book is dedicated exclusively to feline anatomy with emphasis on those areas of anatomy that are frequently encountered in clinical practice. It includes a highly detailed chapter on special senses which collects and organizes difficult to find information for quick access. Nomenclature is from Nomina Anitomica Veterinaria so that the feline anatomy is in line with that used in other textbooks of veterinary anatomy of the domestic animals. The book accurately captures the anatomy pertinent to clinical veterinary medicine.

Die Autorinnen beginnen mit einer umfangreichen Darstellung radiografischer Bilder sowohl des Knochenbaus wie auch der Weichteile, um anschließend eine Reihe von Aufnahmen zu erläutern, die unter Verwendung von Kontrastmitteln entstanden. Sowohl Studierende als auch Praktiker dürften die Unterschiede in der Anatomie von verschiedenen Altersgruppen und Rassen beeindrucken. Die Autoren vermitteln überzeugend, welche anatomischen Eigenschaften als normal gelten dürfen und welcher Befund veterinärmedizinisches Eingreifen erfordert. Immer an der tierärztlichen Praxis orientiert, werden häufige Fallstricke benannt und Hinweise zu Diagnose und Interpretation der Röntgenbilder gegeben. 50 Abbildungen sind in der Neuauflage hinzugekommen, die Qualität vieler Abbildungen wurde verbessert. Beide Autorinnen sind seit den 80er-Jahren intensiv mit der kleintierärztlichen Radiologie befasst. Studenten und Tierärzte lernen hier von zwei erfahrenen Spezialistinnen, die die tierärztliche Praxis genau kennen.

Equip yourself to make accurate diagnoses and achieve successful treatment outcomes with this highly visual comprehensive atlas. Featuring a substantial number of new high contrast images, Atlas of Normal Radiographic Anatomy and Anatomic Variants in the Dog and Cat, 2nd Edition provides an in-depth look at both normal and non-standard subjects along with demonstrations of proper technique and image interpretations. Expert authors Donald E. Thrall and Ian D. Robertson describe a wider range of "normal" as compared to competing books — not only showing standard dogs and cats, but also non-standard subjects such as overweight and underweight pets and animals with breed-specific variations. Every body part is put into context with a textual description to help explain why a structure appears as it does in radiographs, and enabling practitioners to appreciate variations of normal that are not included, based on an understanding of basic radiographic principles. Radiographic images of normal or standard prototypical animals are supplemented by images of non-standard subjects exhibiting breed-specific differences, physiologic variants, or common congenital malformations. Images that depict a wider range of "normal" — such as images that detail the natural growth and aging characteristics of normal pediatric and senior animals — prevents clinical under- and over-diagnosing. In-depth coverage of patient positioning and radiographic exposure guidelines assist clinicians in producing the very best results. Unlabeled radiographs along side labeled counterparts clarifies important anatomic structures of clinical interest. High-quality digital images provide excellent contrast resolution and better visibility of normal structures to assist clinicians in making accurate diagnoses. Brief descriptive text and explanatory legends accompany all images to help put concepts into the proper context. An overview of radiographic technique includes the effects of patient positioning, respiration, and exposure factors. NEW! Companion website features additional radiographic CT scans and more than 100 questions with answers and rationales. NEW! Additional CT and 3D images have been added to each chapter to help clinicians better evaluate the detail of bony structures. NEW! Breed-specific images of dogs and cats are included throughout the atlas to help clinicians better understand the variances in different breeds. NEW! Updated material on oblique view radiography provides a better understanding of an alternative approach to radiography, particularly in fracture cases. NEW! 8.5" x 11" trim size makes the atlas easy to store.

Cat breeders, cat show judges as well as student of veterinary medicine, zoology and wildlife biology will greatly benefit from this feline anatomy coloring atlas. Essential anatomic and physiologic concepts are explained and some diseases common to the region being studied are discussed. Active learning is involved as you color anatomical structures and their names on the drawing or underline their names in the texts and color the parts indicated by a corresponding number. The format replicates Dog Anatomy - A Coloring Atlas by Kainer and McCracken. The format is designed for the cat owner who desires to gain a basic knowledge of feline anatomy with functional correlations and brief descriptions of some the diseases being studied. This do it yourself form maximizes comprehension and retention.

Designed for undergraduate courses emphasizing human anatomy and using the cat for dissection, this popular manual (organized by system) offers exercises that highlight the differences and similarities between feline and human anatomy.

This book offers a comprehensive resource for imaging the feline patient, with an emphasis on the unique considerations of imaging cats. It focuses on radiology and ultrasound, with some coverage of advanced imaging such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Incorporating more than 1750 high-quality images, it is an invaluable reference for any veterinary practitioner with a significant feline caseload. Feline Diagnostic Imaging begins with information on the radiographic evaluation of the thorax, abdomen, and musculoskeletal structures, including normal anatomy and pathology, followed by a review of common echocardiographic and abdominal ultrasound findings and abnormalities. Advanced imaging of the skull using computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging cases of brain and spinal disease are also included. The book: Provides imaging information specifically tailored to the particular needs of cats Emphasizes the modalities most commonly used in general practice, with some discussion of advanced imaging Gives a complete overview of diagnostic imaging for the feline patients Includes tips and tricks for the unique considerations of working with cats Presents essential information for any practitioner treating feline patients Offering a feline focus not found in other imaging books, Feline Diagnostic Imaging is an essential purchase for veterinarians wishing to improve their diagnostic imaging skills in cats. It’s also an excellent guide for veterinary radiologists, and veterinary students and residents.

The Cat Anatomy is a comprehensive reference tool covering the skeletal system, muscular system, joints & ligaments, and the 10 major organ systems of the cat. This set consists of 52 flashcards.
