For the first time, also in veterinary medicine, a text that applies the Point-of-Care ultrasound approach (PoCUS) and which uses the understanding of the ultrasound sign within a dynamic context, that of the most common clinical syndromes in emergency and intensive care, is available.
The volume is characterized by a practical approach to clinical syndromes thanks to diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms based on the patient's problem (dyspnoea, shock, congestion) and not on the pathology of the single organ. The authors guide the reader through a real training path that starts from the setting of reasoning to address hemodynamic problems and then provides the method to correctly perform and interpret the ultrasound sign by associating it with a normal or pathological condition. Ultrasounds for the evaluation of cardiac function, pleuro-pulmonary and abdominal structures are routine in human medicine but represent an important frontier for a veterinarian who wants to face new professional challenges in the care of their patients. The rich iconography of the volume is completed by 75 videos accessible with QR-Codes, showing the techniques for acquiring ultrasound images and the relative movements of the probe.

Handbook entirely dedicated to avian infectious laryngotracheitis (ILT), based on a handy and visual approach of the topic. This handbook has been developed by prestigious, highly experienced, and renowned authors, being experts in the area of avian diseases. An up-to-date and complete review has been carried out including the most significant contents, such as etiology, epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, etc. A chapter about vaccination has been properly developed in order to provide the main guidelines to avoid vaccination failures and control its prevalence and incidence.
The evolution of veterinary cardiology in recent years has been extraordinary due to the new diagnostic methods available, which, in addition to making diagnostic processes more efficient, have made it possible to identify pathologies that were previously unknown.

Vaccination is one of the cornerstones of poultry production. In fact, it is one of the aspects that most influence production parameters in the poultry industry. In broilers, the optimum time of vaccination should aim at obtaining the maximum meat yield. In layers and breeders, both time and the route of administration have an influence in the quality of egg shells and the number of eggs per laying, among others.
This work shows the anatomical connections that unequivocally demonstrate the relationships between occlusion and posture. Hundreds of clinical images allow the reader to understand all aspects of treating patients with postural syndrome, from developing the treatment plan to follow-up checks over time.
Diseases of the liver and pancreas can cause a degree of despair in veterinary practitioners: so much about the causes and treatments of these diseases is poorly understood, and too many cases remain idiopathic. This book guides both first and second opinion practitioners through clinical assessments and workups, preventing oversight of potential underlying causes. Subsequent sections meticulously delve into pancreatic and liver diseases, encompassing clinical pathology, imaging, biopsy acquisition, cytology, and histology, all expertly elucidated by specialists.
