Diagnostic Imaging of Zoo and Wild Mammals

First comprehensive reference on radiology and diagnostic imaging of
non-domestic mammalian species with hundreds of high-quality images and
photographs Diagnostic Imaging of Zoo and Wild Mammals is the first
comprehensive reference to diagnostic imaging in non-domestic mammal
species, discussing practical considerations for digital radiography,
ultrasonography, and cross-sectional (CT and MR) imaging of zoo and wild
mammals. Each species is discussed in depth, covering both normal and
abnormal anatomy and common diseases. The book includes a high number
of annotated diagnostic images and clinical photographs in every
chapter.

A companion website provides high-resolution images
from the book. Chapters are co-authored by board-certified specialists
in zoological medicine and veterinary radiology to provide comprehensive
coverage and necessary context. Diagnostic Imaging of Zoo and Wild
Mammals covers: Practical considerations related to image acquisition,
including anesthesia, behavioral and voluntary training, radiation
