Recognize and treat the parasites seen in
veterinary practice. Diagnostic Parasitology for Veterinary Technicians,
5th Edition features clear and concise discussions of the most commonly
encountered internal and external parasites. Chapters are organized by
parasite group - including nematodes, cestodes, trematodes, protozoans,
arthropods, and leeches - and include a detailed description of the
group, with special emphasis on morphology, life cycle, and important
parasites. Then in each chapter, material is conveniently organized by
host species: dogs, cats, horses, ruminants, swine, birds, lab animals,
fish, and reptiles. Written by noted educators Charles Hendrix and Ed
Robinson, this full-color, spiral-bound book provides the knowledge that
veterinary technicians need to collect samples, perform lab procedures,
and communicate with clients and other members of the veterinary team.
