Helpful hints have also been added throughout to make the book even more useful in the practice setting. 

Each procedure includes information on the background, supplies needed, indications, and contraindications, followed by a series of images demonstrating the technique.  This practical resource, ideally designed for use in fast-paced emergency situations, is an indispensable reference for any member of the veterinary team.
