For professional students in colleges of veterinary medicine the Clinical Dissection Guide for Large Animals, 2e provides the student with a self-directed and detailed guide for the anatomic dissection of the horse and large ruminants. The guide to large animal dissection is organized as a progressive series of anatomical illustrations, accompanied by keyed descriptive text. This guide presents regional and topographical dissection approaches; it starts with surface features and progresses to deeper structures, stopping along the way for appropriate comments on principal anatomical entities for each region. Although this dissection guide is dedicated principally to the veterinary student, it also provides relevant anatomical information that will prove helpful to students and veterinarians in meat inspection and necropsy services, students in equine clinical rotations and to veterinarians in equine practice. Likewise, undergraduate-school and graduate-school educators in veterinary science, biomedical science, and animal science can gain extensive familiarity with the anatomy of large domestic animals through this guide. Finally, the professional equine breeder and cattle breeder will discover in this book new and useful information about the anatomy of large animals. The second edition introduces all the bones and the most important clinical correlations with the anatomical structures exposed during the dissection. With over 650 illustrations on more than 300 plates, the Clinical Dissection Guide for Large Animals, 2e belongs on the shelf of every student and veterinarian who works with horses or production animals.
