Veterinary emergency and critical care medicine is one of the fastest-growing fields in veterinary medicine today.

While there are many books out on the subject there has been no image-based manual for common emergency procedures aimed at the general practitioner as well as emergency specialist.

This text provides step-by-step instructions for a variety of common procedures with photographs illustrating each step in the procedure. This is the ideal guide for veterinarians providing emergency and critical care.
