Technical book on avian inspection, written by an experienced author in this topic, which tackles the most important findings noticed during broiler meat inspection at abattoirs. After starting with an introduction about poultry inspection, the book describes the most significant conditions (pathologies, rejections due to poor processing, offal for human consumption) found during broiler inspection. Each chapter is divided in three parts clearly differentiated: definition, origin, and responsibilities arising for veterinarian/ inspector. A chapter entirely dedicated to animal welfare is included within this book. It is focused on the major aspects to be considered by veterinarian/inspector under compliance with current legislation.

General dental practice has never been more interesting, and the field of tooth wear satisfies so many aspects of the skills we are trained to use. It requires detective work and lateral thinking, empathy, and listening. Most of all, it’s about offering confidence and reassurance to patients who are often discovering for the first time that chemical and physical forces are damaging their teeth.
But not all tooth wear needs treatment. How then, does a clinician make the distinction, and what drives us to intervene? This book will weigh all aspects of the treatment options and the motivation for managing tooth wear. Above all, it focus on biologic, functional, and ethical rationale with the goal of enamel conservation and protection at the forefront.

What scientific instruments can estimate the prospect of patient and society in the allocation of limited resources?
