Description
The second edition of Avian Medicine, continues as a practical, comprehensive full-colour illustrative guide to the diagnosis and management
of avian disorders. With the participation of some of the world's leading authorities in avian medicine, the book addresses issues ranging
from the basic aspects of patient management to the most sophisticated diagnostic techniques; aiming to teach the general clinician how
to approach all birds. A wide range of avian species are discussed in detail, including psittacines, raptors, bustards and many more.
Completely revised, the second edition contains extended and new chapter sections - with a wealth of new illustrations! - including
cytology and behavioural osteodystrophy, fluoroscopy and advanced imaging techniques. With numerous practical guidelines on the medical
management of the patient or flock and many useful tips on clinical laboratory diagnosis and suggested treatments, Avian Medicine contains
valuable practical advice on all aspects of veterinary care of avian species. Avian Medicine combines the practicality of a hands-on
manual with the wealth of information of a textbook and the highly illustrated format of an atlas.
