Organ-Specific Parasitic Diseases of Dogs and Cats takes an organ-specific approach to the impact of parasitic diseases in dogs and cats. This book provides a detailed description of the key role that parasites play in the pathogenesis of diseases, explores the manifestation of symptoms and diagnosis, and offers prevention and treatment strategies to counteract parasitic infections.

An introduction by the editor is followed by chapters from various authors covering parasitic diseases in specific organs and organ systems. The book also provides an overview on the diagnostic evaluation of parasitic diseases. Parasite control, travel management, therapeutic measures, and disease control strategies round out the discussion.

With contributions from experts in the field, this book serves as a useful resource to researchers, academics, and postgraduates who wish to expand their knowledge on parasitic diseases, diagnosis, and treatment, and as a reference for scientists looking to develop new antiparasitic drugs.

Reviews for Organ-Specific Parasitic Diseases of Dogs and Cats

""....covers all the parasites of various organ systems in dogs and cats and is very complete in its coverage of all known parasitic infections, including even the most obscure infestations. …[A]lso includes large animal infections in some cases and does a masterful job of covering both internal and external parasitic infections. …[A] comprehensive review that students and academicians can use to detect and confirm parasitic infections and then determine the most appropriate therapy…. The book meets a need, as most texts do not provide the details covered here…. Each chapter contains a nice feature on the etymology of parasites, the epidemiology and life cycle, how the infestations manifest through clinical signs, and treatment recommendations,… which makes for easy reading…. With up-to-date treatment modalities, this book is a welcome addition that will aid students and practitioners alike."" --©Doody’s Review Service, 2023, Dennis D French, DVM (University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine)
