      Cet ouvrage est dédié à l'échocardiographie cardiaque du chien et du chat, domaine qui connaît de fortes évolutions. De nouvelles techniques — le Doppler tissulaire, le speckle tracking, l'échocardiographie transœsophagienne, et plus récemment l'échocardiographie tridimensionnelle, par exemple — ont bouleversé la manière d'évaluer l'anatomie et la fonction cardiaque. Ce livre présente tous les apports de ces nouvelles approches, en les associant aux modalités plus classiques, permettant aux cliniciens d'utiliser de manière efficiente tout le potentiel de leurs équipements dans leur pratique quotidienne de la clinique. L'évaluation du risque est abordée : risque d'insuffisance cardiaque, risque de thrombo-embolie, degré de sévérité de la cardiopathie et les pronostics associés à ces risques. Une section est consacrée à l'évaluation hémodynamique telle que le permettent toutes ces nouvelles modalités. Enfin, l'évaluation pré et post-chirurgicale des cardiopathies congénitales, signe du développement de la cardiologie interventionnelle et de la nécessité d'examens échocardiographiques de plus en plus sophistiqués, est expliquée en détail. Un chapitre introduit également l'échocardiographie tridimensionnelle, technique appelée à prendre un fort essor. Cet ouvrage de référence est abondamment illustré, enrichi de nombreuses données chiffrées ainsi que de vidéos commentées signalées par le logo "e" et consultables sur le mini-site EM-consulte. Axé sur la pratique quotidienne de l'échocardiographie vétérinaire, il est destiné aussi bien à l'échocardiographist... débutant souhaitant se former qu'à l'échocardiographist... averti qui souhaite se perfectionner.

      Veterinary Neuroanatomy: A Clinical Approach is written by veterinary neurologists for anyone with an interest in the functional, applied anatomy and clinical dysfunction of the nervous system in animals, especially when of veterinary significance. It offers a user-friendly approach, providing the principal elements that students and clinicians need to understand and interpret the results of the neurological examination. Clinical cases are used to illustrate key concepts throughout. The book begins with an overview of the anatomical arrangement of the nervous system, basic embryological development, microscopic anatomy and physiology. These introductory chapters are followed by an innovative, hierarchical approach to understanding the overall function of the nervous system. The applied anatomy of posture and movement, including the vestibular system and cerebellum, is comprehensively described and illustrated by examples of both function and dysfunction. The cranial nerves and elimination systems as well as behaviour, arousal and emotion are discussed. The final chapter addresses how to perform and interpret the neurological examination. Veterinary Neuroanatomy: A Clinical Approach has been prepared by experienced educators with 35 years of combined teaching experience in neuroanatomy. Throughout the book great care is taken to explain key concepts in the most transparent and memorable way whilst minimising jargon. Detailed information for those readers with specific interests in clinical neuroanatomy is included in the text and appendix. As such, it is suitable for veterinary students, practitioners and also readers with a special interest in clinical neuroanatomy.
