Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite original research papers that address improvements in clinical and investigational veterinary ocular pathology.
Veterinary ophthalmic pathology is undergoing a transformation. Currently, it is a broader specialty incorporating molecular biology and gene testing, granting us novel insight and the ability to provide more accurate diagnoses, prognoses, and, ultimately, targeted therapy.
The topics of this Special Issue involve all aspects of veterinary ophthalmology: preclinical and clinical research, and the diagnosis and treatment of various ocular disorders. We welcome publications on new findings concerning pathogenesis, genetic analysis, advances in molecular pathology, immunohistochemistry, and digital imaging.
The purpose of this Special Issue is to present high-quality documents focused on the ocular pathology of canine and feline species. Our goal is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical research in as much detail as possible.
