Veterinary Clinical Pathology A Case-Based Approach PDF

It is not meant to cover all possible clinical pathology diagnoses, but offers a compilation of cases with clinical pathological results encountered by the contributors. The book was inspired by examples provided to the authors by their teachers and mentors when discussing cases and their thought processes in order to encourage the development of their own clinicopathological skills during training.

We were further motivated by the need expressed by many veterinary students and trainees in general veterinary medicine, clinical pathology and internal medicine with whom we have interacted to have wider experience of the thought processes of experienced clinical pathologists and clinicians with regard to interpretation of laboratory data.

It was fascinating to see the systematic approaches that each contributor has taken with the cases they have elected to submit. Although the order of consideration and the terminology and phrases used by each contributor may differ slightly, there are many common threads that will be recognised as you read through these cases. You may find that you have ‘favourite’ contributors whose thought process and approach you admire, and you may seek to incorporate their style, phrases and approach into your own clinical repertoire.

The role of clinicians and clinical pathologists in today’s environment lies in providing context, ‘telling the story’ and giving meaning in order to tie together the clinical presentation and laboratory data and assure the best possible patient care. By providing ‘meaning’ for ourselves, the owners and our colleagues we are establishing the basis for ongoing learning and a way to approach cases that will help all of us to become better practitioners of the art and science of veterinary medicine and to better communicate with our clients, owners and colleagues.
