Description

This resource combines expert radiographic guidance with proven treatment recommendations, making it a useful source for advice on diagnosis and management of fractures in small animals. It aims to help readers extract information from radiography, and then points the way to suitable treatments and realistic prognoses. This text: covers all the small animal fractures ordinarily seen by practitioners, includes over 300 illustrations demonstrating effective radiographic approaches, fracture presentation, and treatment results; and contains case studies that illustrate principles of effective management.
