The busy small animal practitioner is likely to see a dog or cat with GI signs most days and this resource should give them greater insight into the conditions they are treating. This manual is divided into four main sections:

* Diagnostic procedures and techniques: this section covers clinical pathology, imaging and biopsy

* Diagnostic approaches to problems: the chapters in this section provide a practical, diagnostic approach to problems affecting the GI tract, pancreas and liver

* Patient management: this section looks at the treatments available for GI, pancreatic and liver disease.

* Diseases of specific systems/organs: the chapters in this final section cover specific conditions of organs of the GI tract, including pathophysiology, clinical signs, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis.

Index
"Each chapter provides a succinct digest of the topic at hand, can be read quickly in preparation for a case or between appointments as a refresher, and often contains appropriate flowcharts or summary boxes to help with decision-making. The photographs and diagrams include a selection of clinical, diagnostic imaging, endoscopic, and histopathologic images that are of excellent quality and help illustrate major findings and elaborate on or reinforce important points....In my opinion, this manual will be a beneficial reference for recent veterinary graduates and experienced clinicians alike and should be kept within close reach for use in busy clinic settings." - JAVMA | DEC 15, 2020 | VOL 257 | NO. 12
