BSAVA Manual of Canine and Feline Musculoskeletal Imaging

This manual is structured along anatomical lines, including chapters considering each joint, the long bones, and the skull and spine. It includes general chapters on soft tissues, bone and joints common to all regions of the musculoskeletal system. Each chapter contains sections on radiographical technique, as well as normal radiographical anatomy, before considering the radiological features which may be associated with injury or disease. Illustrations, line drawings and a wide range of radiographs complement the text. Each chapter considers alternative imaging techniques and the situations in which they may be particularly useful.
