Pathology of Laboratory Rodents and Rabbits
Pathology of Laboratory Rodents and Rabbits has become a standard text for both veterinary pathologists and veterinarians in laboratory animal medicine. Newly recognized infectious diseases continue to emerge and molecular methods for studying infectious agents are becoming widely used for the classification of these and previously known pathogens. With the ongoing development and perfection of genetic engineering techniques, the use of genetically engineered mice in the research laboratory continues to grow exponentially. This new edition features updates throughout with increased emphasis on timely topics such as infectious diseases in genetically engineered mice. Diseases covered include viral infections, bacterial infections, parasitic diseases, nutritional and metabolic disorders, behavioral disorders, aging and degenerative disorders, environment-related disease, and neoplasms. Organized by species, coverage includes mice, rats, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, and rabbits. Veterinary pathologists, laboratory animal veterinarians, and students will appreciate the concise organization and easily accessible information on key diagnostic features, differential diagnoses, and significance of diseases.

Pathology of Laboratory Rodents and Rabbits
Comprehensive reference to pathology in small laboratory mammals with an emphasis on pathogenesis and diagnostic features of diseases The Fifth Edition of Pathology of Laboratory Rodents and Rabbits offers a thorough update to this comprehensive reference of diseases in mice, rats, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and rabbits. Emphasizing explanations of pathogenesis and diagnostically relevant features of diseases, the book is logically organized by species and richly illustrated with 689 color photographs and photomicrographs to show the features of common or classic diseases. This edition adds a new chapter on chinchillas and new information on immunodeficient and humanized mice, as well as updates throughout to reflect new information and changes in the field. The content has been expanded to include diseases and disorders of feral, wild, companion, and livestock counterparts of laboratory rodents and rabbits, including zoonotic diseases. Topics discussed in Pathology of Laboratory Rodents and Rabbits for each species include: Anatomic and physiologic features DNA and RNA viral infections Bacterial, fungal, and parasitic infections Nutritional, metabolic, and toxic disorders Non-neoplastic organ system disorders Neoplasms Pathology of Laboratory Rodents and Rabbits is an essential reference for laboratory animal veterinarians and veterinary anatomic pathologists, as well as clinicians seeing small exotic mammals.
