A richly illustrated reference on immune-mediated diseases in dogs and cats, grounded in veterinary clinical practice
Veterinary Clinical Immunology provides clear and accurate information on the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of immune-mediated diseases in small animals. Written by practicing clinicians for practicing clinicians, this highly practical resource contains user-friendly chapters on general and specific testing methods, common and atypical immune-mediated diseases, vaccinationbest practice and controversies, and more.
Divided into four sections, the textbook opens with a thorough immunology primer for clinicians, describing innate and adaptive immunity, pathophysiology, immunogenetics, and pathogens. Subsequent sections focus on diagnostic approaches and treatments, immunodeficiency and onco-immunology, and a range ofspecific immune-mediated diseases, including diseases of the hematopoietic system, the oral cavity and gastrointestinal tract, the kidneys and bladder, and the nervous and endocrine systems.
Veterinary Clinical Immunology is a must-have for busy primary practitioners and specialists looking for a current and comprehensive reference source. It is also a valuable clinically-based textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate veterinary students, trainees, residents, and veterinary technicians and nurses.
