Pathology of Pet and Aviary Birds

Pathology of Pet and Aviary Birds

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The number of pet and breeding birds in captivity and in ornamental and zoological collections has increased dramatically in the past 30 years. With the growth in the bird owning public comes a corresponding growth in the number of veterinarians providing care for birds. Avian veterinarians and bird owners depend on the pathologist to make an accurate diagnosis and provide advice on the significance of their findings.Diseases of pet and aviary birds differ significantly from those of poultry and from many of the common diseases seen in wild birds - even wild birds of the same species. Pathology of Pet and Aviary Birds- offers a comprehensive review of the gross and histologic features of the diseases of pet and aviary bird,- provides a guide to ancillary diagnostics,- presents a context in which to interpret the pathologic findings, and- helps to create an understanding of the pathogenesis of the clinical manifestations of disease.The material is organized by system so that the pathologist faced with a diagnostic challenge involving a particular organ can go to the appropriate chapter, rather than having to search through extraneous listings under etiology or by bird species.Pathology of Companion and Aviary Birds is an indispensable reference for avian practitioners and students of avian medicine, veterinary pathologists and pathology trainees who will be engaged in diagnostic pathology or research on avian diseases.
