As a veterinarian, especially as a student or new graduate, a ten minute consultation in a busy small animal practice can be a daunting task. By guiding you to think pathophysiologically, this book will help solve clinical problems as efficiently as possible. The authors set out a structured approach with easy to remember rules which can be applied to most clinical signs small animals present with. This reduces the need to remember long lists of differentials and avoids the potential of getting trapped by a perceived obvious diagnosis. The book will help to unlock your potential to solve clinical problems. It also provides a logical rationale for choosing diagnostic tests or treatments which can be clearly communicated to the owner. Written by internationally renowned clinicians and educators in clinical reasoning, key features of the book include: An easy to remember and logical approach to solving a wide range of clinical problems encountered in small animal medicine and neurology An invaluable resource for every level of learner, from student to experienced practitioner Flowcharts and key step markers throughout help illustrate the decision making process Clinical inductive reasoning offers you the ability to solve cases more efficiently, resulting in better treatment and care for pets and happier owners. Clinical Reasoning in Small Animal Practice will help turn a terrifying case into a manageable one!.Pet medicineVeterinary medicine -- DiagnosisVeterinary oncologyElectronic books.Pet medicine.Veterinary medicine -- Diagnosis.Veterinary oncology.636.0896075Maddison Jill E1464217Volk Holger A1464218Church David B1464219MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910795979403321Clinical Reasoning in Small Animal Practice3673795UNINA04021nam 2201045z- 450 991055729660332120210501(CKB)5400000000041073(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/69275(oapen)doab69275(EXLCZ)99540000000004107320202105d2020 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierGeo-Informatics in Resource ManagementBasel, SwitzerlandMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20201 online resource (206 p.)3-03943-739-9 3-03943-740-2 The management of natural resources can be approached using different data sources and techniques, from images registered by sensors of onboard satellites to UAV platforms, using remote sensing techniques and geographic information systems, among others. The variability of problems and projects to be analyzed, studied, and solved is very wide. This book presents a collection of different experiences, ranging from the location of areas of interest to the simulation of future scenarios of a territory at local and regional scales, considering spatial resolutions ranging from centimeters to hundreds of meters. The common objective of all the works compiled in this book is to support decision-making in environmental management.Research & information: generalbicssc21st Century Maritime Silk Road regionactive fire dataadaptive K-means algorithmaerial imageryagent based modelingalpine grasslandanalytic hierarchy processarchival photographsassociated influencing factorsautomatic identification system datab-valuebearing capacitycrop growth perioddisaster managementdynamic of land useearthquake catalogEBKfarmland abandonment mappingfirst come first servefractional vegetation coverfuture scenariosgeographic information systemgeographical information systemgeographical survey of national conditionsGISGLCMgranulometric analysisground surveyheavy industry heat sourceshigh severity levelhotspot analysisland usemainland Chinamaritime oil chokepointMiddle East Respiratory Syndromemulti-scale LAI product validationNatura 2000 threatsnatural wetlands changesnight-time light dataNPP-VIIRSoil flow analysisPoznańprecision evaluationpreludePROSAIL modelremote sensingresource allocationsecondary succession monitoringseismic parametersseismicityspatial analysisspatial autocorrelationSpatial Decision Support System, CORINE Land Coverspatial patternspatial relationshipspectro-textural classificationtextural segmentationtopsis algorithmtree detectionResearch & information: generalMesas Carrascosa Francisco Javieredt1302206Mesas Carrascosa Francisco JavierothBOOK9910557296603321Geo-Informatics in Resource Management3026249UNINA
