Laboratory diagnosis is one of the most useful tools available to clinical veterinarians
and one of the elds in which professionals have the greatest difculty in terms of
interpretation. This problem is partly caused by an overly rigid and static approach
to the eld, as well as by a lack of tools that explicitly guide this area in daily clinical
practice. Thus, in relation to the latter, this compendium of clinical cases will
undoubtedly become an applied reference source in English.
The text ‘Small animal clinical cases involving haematology, biochemistry, and
gasometry’ by Alejandro Pérez-Écija thoroughly and exhaustively deals with the
most common laboratory alterations in canines and felines, providing extraordinary
illustrations and providing the highest degree of didactic and practical orientation
possible for each clinical situation. Thanks to this approach, this guide delves into
the physiopathogenesis, clinical symptoms, and diagnosis of numerous pathological
processes in an entertaining and highly visual way, establishing the bases for the
adequate and useful interpretation of laboratory results.
This text is aimed at all clinical veterinarians, regardless of their degree of experience
in laboratory diagnosis, both initiating them into the elds of haematology, biochemistry,
and gasometry, as well as providing in depth analysis of complex clinical assumptions
involving multiple linked factors. As a result of the author’s extraordinary work, his
extensive clinical and pathology experience, and his exceptional educational and
academic history, the reader will nd it easy and enjoyable to learn about laboratory
diagnosis and how these techniques can be leveraged in their daily clinical work.
