Over the last 20 to 30 years, the progression of equine pediatric medicine has followed the progression in equine medicine and surgery. Though the diseases generally remain the same, technology has provided more advanced diagnostic techniques. Improvements in radiology, ultrasound, and endoscopy have provided pictures of areas that were previously unavailable. Advanced computerized imaging techniques are taking diagnostics to a new level. However, these technologies are useless without the clinician’s innate knowledge of medicine and his or her physical diagnostic capabilities. The aim of this book is to provide the clinician with the information needed to make a presumptive diagnosis
from physical and clinical examination findings, to consider the relevant pathophysiology of the conditions detailed, to compile a list of differential diagnoses, to confirm the diagnosis with laboratory testing and advanced diagnostics, and to plan the therapeutic course to be taken.
