Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Gastroenterology and hepatology are dynamic fields of research and clinical practice in small-animal internal medicine. Significant progress has been made in our understanding of liver, biliary, pancreatic and gastrointestinal diseases over the last two decades. The standard of care has evolved; some new diagnostic tools have been developed, and treatment recommendations have been updated.
The goal of this Special Issue is to provide readers with updates on the etiology, diagnosis, management and treatment of some of the most common gastrointestinal, hepatic and pancreatic diseases and disorders clinicians come across on a daily basis. A further aim of this Special Issue is to highlight developing research areas related to alimentary tract diseases of dogs and cats.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include, but are not limited to, the following: chronic and acute enteropathies, infectious disease, chronic hepatitis, pancreatitis, GI disease biomarkers and advances in laboratory diagnostic tests, imaging, histopathology and nutrition in digestive diseases. Papers in the form of case reports are also welcome.
