In the fascinating world of endocrinology, scientific knowledge and technology have advanced greatly in recent years. Alongside, the ability to diagnose, treat, and manage various endocrine disorders has progressed too. The goal of this textbook is to provide an up-to-date, comprehensive, yet accessible resource for understanding and managing endocrine disorders in dogs. The book is divided into two parts. The first part adopts a problem-oriented approach to the most common clinical and laboratory abnormalities in dogs with endocrine diseases. This section, full algorithms that guide step by step veterinarians in diagnostic evaluation and setting up the treatment, serves as a quick reference guide in clinical situations. The second part focuses on endocrine diseases. Each chapter starts with the basic anatomy and physiology of the specific endocrine glands, followed by detailed discussions on clinical signs, diagnostic methodologies, and management strategies. Chapters are richly supplemented with videos available through QR codes, boxes, tables, algorithms, charts, imaging studies, and illustrations.

This book aims to introduce veterinary surgeons to a new concept of pain for a better understanding of what pain is and how it occurs. By describing pain pathways and their regulation, as well as the sophisticated therapeutic systems that are currently being developed, this book shows its readers how to interpret pain, and how to identify it as a pathology in itself and treat it as such. The management of chronic pain in companion animals is an area in which there is a significant therapeutic void. In many cases, professionals are unaware of the appropriate approach to managing chronic pain, despite the wide range of pharmacological, surgical, and physical therapy options that act directly on the pain pathways.
