Laser Surgery in Veterinary Medicine

This book is a state-of-the-art reference to using
surgical lasers to treat animal patients. Encompassing theory and
practice, it emphasizes procedures, techniques, and equipment, with
specific recommendations for laser settings.   While most of the
procedures emphasize surgeries on dogs and cats, this practical guide
also dedicates chapters to equine, small mammal, avian, aquatic animal,
and reptile surgeries, making it an excellent clinical reference for any
busy veterinarian. 

The book begins with background information
on the theory and science of laser surgery, then details specific
surgical procedures with step-by-step instructions and accompanying
photographs. The next section provides practical guidance for
incorporating lasers into the veterinary practice, and the final section
offers a look at the future of lasers in veterinary medicine and
surgery. A companion website features video clips of surgery
procedures.
