Interpret diagnostic images accurately with Diagnostic Radiology and Ultrasonography of the Dog and Cat, 5th Edition. Written by veterinary experts J. Kevin Kealy, Hester McAllister, and John P. Graham, this concise guide covers the principles of diagnostic radiology and ultransonography and includes clear, complete instruction in image interpretation. It illustrates the normal anatomy of body systems, and then uses numbered points to describe radiologic signs of abnormalities. It also includes descriptions of the ultrasonographic appearance of many conditions in dogs and cats. Updated with the latest on digital imaging, CT, MR, and nuclear medicine, and showing how to avoid common errors in interpretation, this book is exactly what you need to refine your diagnostic and treatment planning skills!

"For students and small animal veterinary practitioners, Kealy (veterinary surgery and companion animal medicine, U. College Dublin, Ireland) et al. offer a guide to the principles of diagnostic radiology and ultrasonography for use with dogs and cats. Chapters are organized by body system and describe and illustrate normal anatomy and radiologic signs of abnormalities, as well as the ultrasonographic appearance of many conditions. This edition has been updated with the latest digital imaging in CT, MRI, and nuclear medicine; developments like portosystemic shunts, color Doppler images, thyroid scintigraphy, computed tomography, and digital radiography; and how to avoid common errors in interpretation."
