Improve International has launched the first volume of the latest in its new textbook series – the Improve International Manual of Clinical Small Animal Internal Medicine.
Providing comprehensive information to support the diagnosis and treatment of commonly seen pathologies of dogs and cats, the new book covers topics including haematology, immunology, diagnostic imaging, respiratory diseases, cardiovascular medicine, reproductive system disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, as well as hepatobiliary and exocrine pancreas disorders. Each chapter has been authored by an internationally recognised expert in their field.
Improve, a global leader in veterinary CPD, launched its first textbook, the two-volume Improve International Manual of Small Animal Surgery in 2019. Its books support delegates studying for the company’s flagship Postgraduate Certificate training programmes as part of its blended learning approach but are also a useful reference source for other veterinary surgeons. Each chapter includes a self-assessment section with test questions and clinical cases.
Commenting, Mr John Douglass, General Manager of Improve International, said: “Following the positive response to our first textbook, the Improve International Manual of Small Animal Surgery, we felt it was important to follow up with a small animal medicine equivalent. We’re therefore very happy to unveil volume one of the Improve International Manual of Clinical Small Animal Internal Medicine and look forward to the launch of the second volume later this year.”
He added: “Our textbooks focus on the practical application of current veterinary knowledge, offering top tips and key advice throughout expressed in an engaging and highly visual format to ensure that they are perfect for those in need of a quick ‘look up’ in practice.”
One of the world’s leading veterinary training companies, Improve International was founded by a team of UK vets and has trained more than 20,000 veterinary professionals in 20 countries around the world. In the delivery of its programmes, it works closely with its assessment partner, the International School of Veterinary Postgraduate Studies (ISVPS), and with Harper Adams University, which provides the higher education body quality assurance.
