Abstract:

"Canine Lameness offers an easy-to-use guide to diagnosing the causes of lameness in dogs. Bringing together clinical examination, diagnostic imaging, and relevant musculoskeletal anatomy, the book puts all the information needed to assess and diagnose a lame dog at the practitioner's fingertips. To simplify and streamline the use of the book in the clinic, information is logically organized by body system, with an emphasis on muscular pathology and conditions. Written by specialists in orthopedics, sports medicine, and neurology, the book is a highly practical reference to canine lameness diagnosis, focusing on the most commonly presented soft tissue injuries. A companion website offers video clips showing the steps of the examination, lameness conditions, and techniques. Canine Lameness is a useful resource for veterinarians and staff involved in the diagnosis of lameness in dogs"--Publisher's description.
