Main description:

Advanced Diagnostic Imaging Techniques in the Horse is the first book to cover all imaging modalities in a single volume, offering advice on how to select and use imaging techniques to develop an accurate diagnosis. Providing practical guidance on determining which modality to choose, performing the diagnostic imaging exam, and identifying pathologic change, this is a truly comprehensive reference on equine imaging. Organized by body system, each chapter begins with a normal atlas, followed by a well-illustrated section on pathologic change. Including nearly 2000 images, the book covers radiography, ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, and nuclear scintigriphy, with images from each modality represented for each anatomical region. Advanced Diagnostic Imaging Techniques in the Horse is an invaluable reference for any clinician using imaging techniques in diagnosing horses.
