Section One sets out to provide a platform for understanding the cellular basis of cancer and its aetiopathogenesis, along with the broad principles of diagnosis, treatment and management of cancer cases. Section Two sets out the finer details of the main groups of cancer in horses and provides an in-depth description of the literature and what is generally known about the various conditions. Section Three provides busy practitioners with a ready reckoner in respect of the tumors that occur in each of the ten body systems.Clinical Equine Oncology is a very comprehensive work that will enable a clinician to diagnose the majority of tumors and have rapid access to clinically useful information when a diagnosis is provided clinically or by the pathologist.
