Extensively referenced and organized by major body systems,
individual topics are listed in an evidence-based format according
to specific disease processes or physiological processes of
interest. Each entry also includes information on the mechanism of
action, administration, and diagnostic interpretation.
Descriptions have been provided for the application of diagnostic pharmaceuticals to assess a wide spectrum of diseases and physiological processes relevant to the fields of veterinary and human medicine. Comparative Diagnostic Pharmacology is useful not merely for pharmaceutical-oriented research investigations, but it will also prove invaluable for the monitoring and evaluation of physiological responses and disease processes in animal models.
