The author team of experts in the field of cardiology presents their extensive experience in the first German-language work on this specialty. The compact and image-oriented structure of the book offers veterinarians a practice-oriented concept as well as answers to everyday questions in clinical cardiology. Clear symbolism supports the systematic structure and guides the reader through the text. The first part of the book explains the fundamentals of general cardiology: the cardiological examination process, ECG, X-ray examination, ultrasound, blood pressure measurement, and laboratory tests. In the second section, the authors thoroughly discuss specialized cardiology. They present all clinically important heart diseases and malformations concisely in the form of profiles. This facilitates differential diagnostic overviews as well as dialogue with colleagues and patients.
