The purpose of this book is to provide a source of information on radiographic technique in small animal practice for use by veterinary students, by practitioners and by their technical assistants. The format presents the more theoretical aspects of radiographic techniques in the first part of the book and an atlas on technique and positioning in the second part. The author has tried to keep the theoretical concepts that are necessary for an understanding of radiographic technique in practical perspective in an effort to make their consumption more tolerable. The atlas on technique and positioning is arranged according to regional anatomy and, in most cases, pertinent radiographic anatomy is illustrated by line drawing overlays and labels. No attempt has been made to illustrate pathologic anatomy except where illustration of a particular technique is enhanced by its use. [From the Author"s Preface]
