The volume has been updated and enriched by the Gastroenterology academics to offer a user-friendly tool, always in line with the most recent research and pedagogical methodologies.
In this book we first propose the correct way to make a quick and complete necropsy which reveals the different organs and structures, offering a technique that can provide us with as much information as possible. Secondly, and directly connected with the necropsy process and maintaining both the orders and the observation plane, we show a significant number of lesions with their respective interpretations and possible relationships with one or more diseases.
This atlas compiles clinical cases and images of pathological conditions. It will be very helpful for any vet needing to recognise macroscopical and microscopical lesions in sheep.
The book is divided into six sections, starting with the diagnostic approach to specific clinical presentations that may or may not be due to GI disease, with each chapter including an algorithmic pathway. A section on diagnostic methods is followed by sections about the management of GI diseases and non-specific and specific drug treatments. The fifth section covers diffuse inflammatory, infectious and neoplastic diseases of the GI tract. Specific diseases of each area of the tract from esophagus to large intestine are found in the final section.
