ABSTRACT
General Principles The goal of this book is to provide a readily useable reference for equine dermatology with adequate information for a
thorough and logical workup of a horse with skin disease. It also
provides therapeutic protocols for the most common equine derma-
tologic problems. There are three sections in this book. The first
covers how to take a dermatologic history, interpret the results of
this history in light of the clinical findings, and which diagnostic
tests to perform. The second explains an approach to common der-
matologic presentations in equine practice. The last summarizes
therapeutic options for specific conditions.
