Description

This book offers a state-of-the-art, evidence-based reference to all aspects of veterinary cytology. Truly multidisciplinary in its approach, chapters are written by experts in fields ranging from clinical pathology to internal medicine, surgery, ophthalmology, and dermatology, drawing the various specialties together to create a comprehensive picture of cytology's role in diagnosis and treatment of animal disease. Firmly grounded in the primary literature, the book focuses on companion animals, with special chapters for species with fewer publications. Chapters are logically organized by body system, with additional chapters on tumors of particular import and diagnostic decision making.
 
The first two sections of Veterinary Cytology focus on cytology techniques, quality control, and special laboratory techniques. Subsequent sections are organ/tissue-based and reflect what is known about the canine, feline, and equine species. This is followed by chapters on non-traditional species, including exotic companion mammals, rabbits, cattle, camelids, non-human primates, reptiles and birds, amphibians, fish, invertebrates, and sheep and goats. The last section highlights some unique features of the applications of cytology in industry settings.
* Provides a gold-standard reference to data-driven information about cytologic analysis in companion animal species
* Brings together authors from a wide range of specialties to present a thorough survey of cytology's use in veterinary medicine
* Offers broader species coverage and greater depth than any cytology reference currently available
 
Veterinary Cytology is an essential resource for clinical and anatomic pathologists and any specialist in areas using cytology, including veterinary oncologists, criticalists, surgeons, ophthalmologists, dermatologists, and internists.

Report

"The result is a very extensive, detailed, and enjoyable publication, updated to the most recent literature, and covering all aspects of veterinary cytology....This textbook represents a very precious resource for residents, clinical pathologists, and veterinarians who already have some experience on the subject....Overall, Veterinary Cytology by Dr Leslie Sharkey and colleagues is an extremely valuable textbook that I personally recommend to all veterinary cytologists. I often consult it during my routine cytologic evaluations, and I found it pleasant reading it during these months of lockdown, which I believe are the signs the book has hit its target." - Vet Clin Pathol. 2021;50:98-98.
 
The editors of Veterinary Cytology have brought together an impressive international group of contributors, and the product does not disappoint. This is a much-needed addition to the literature because it is an inclusive reference textbook for all species. The text is engrossing and accessible owing to crisp editing, and the explanations are well supported with exemplary images....Overall, this book is a comprehensive, expansive, and reasonably priced resource that complements currently available cytology atlases.
