Thoracic Radiology - Book Only

Thoracic Radiology for the Small Animal Practitioner is an excellent
guide for the general veterinarian, veterinary technician and upper vet
student. It covers interpretation of thoracic radiographs for the
diagnosis in dogs and cats, how to increase the quality of your images,
background information about the possible causes of various abnormal
findings, and corresponding diagnostic tests and treatments.

Thoracic Radiology offers a practical approach to general film interpretation
and a prioritized approach to differential diagnoses in particular.
Normal and abnormal findings of the dog and cat are discussed as well
as possible causes, suggestions for additional diagnostic tests, and
treament approaches. Helpful techniques for increased proficiency in
shooting radiographs are also reviewed.

Excellent quality images and diagrammed overlays well-illustrate the difference between
normal and abnormal findings. The easy-to-follow format, which includes
diagrams, charts and outlines, makes it a fast and convenient
reference. O'Brien covers everything from how to position the animal
for better image quality, to in-depth background information in all
aspects of thoracic radiology to help identify diagnoses in a clinical
setting.
