  • Fully updated new edition of the most comprehensive reference on veterinary tumor pathology in domestic animals

    Tumors in Domestic Animals, Sixth Edition is the authoritative reference on veterinary tumor pathology. The book focuses on diagnostics, the biologic behavior of animal cancers, and oncogenesis. The sixth edition includes current advances in research and diagnostics, and hundreds of new full-color images to aid in identification and prediction of tumor behavior. Logically organized for ease of use, the neoplastic and non-neoplastic tumors in each system are listed and the relevant clinical and diagnostic features provided, differential diagnoses are included, and each chapter is superbly illustrated allowing readers to quickly locate relevant information.

    There are many new authors, and seven new chapters are included allowing easier access to information regarding parameters to evaluate tumors, melanocytic, and odontogenic tumors, as well as tumors of the heart, pancreas, spleen and thymus, and serosa. A companion website offers figures for downloading in PowerPoint.

    Topics discussed in Tumors in Domestic Animals include:

    ● System by system overview of cancer, including cytology, histology, immunohistochemistry, trimming, parameters used to evaluate, and behavior of tumors

    ● Epithelial, non-epithelial, and melanocytic tumors of the skin and oral cavity

    ● Tumors of bone, joints, skeletal muscle and the respiratory and alimentary tracts

    ● Tumors of the liver and gall bladder, urinary, genital, and nervous systems, mammary gland, eye and ear

    ● Appendices summarize the key diagnostic and prognostic information for aggressive tumors seen frequently in dogs and cats

    Tumors in Domestic Animals is an essential up-to-date reference on cancer of domestic animals designed for veterinary pathologists, oncologists, and residents.
