This atlas will be invaluable to specialists and general practitioners who treat small mammal species. The detailed text and excellent index will allow easy access to images needed for comparison in clinical cases. The increase in popularity of small companion animals such as mice, rats, hamsters, chinchillas, guinea pigs, rabbits, and ferrets requires improved accuracy of diagnostic imaging and enhanced medical care, which this atlas helps to provide.
