Small Animal Pathology for Veterinary Technicians fosters
an understanding of small animal diseases, relating pathology
information to the responsibilities of technicians in the clinical
setting. Beginning with the technician’s role in
pathology, terminology, and the process of diagnosis, chapters then
cover diseases organized by system. From reproductive,
endocrine, and eye disease to urinary tract and infectious
diseases, the book offers in-depth information on a wide range of
commonly presented diseases, providing technicians with practical
information linked to their daily tasks.
Each body system includes a brief review of anatomy and
function, full-color pictures, and tip boxes to help emphasize
important issues. A companion website offers images from the
book, review questions, and case studies illustrating the process
of handling the patient at

students and veterinary technicians in practice will find this a
valuable resource to understanding disease and the process of
diagnosis.
