Anatomy of Equids: Morphological and Anatomical Aspects of Clinical Studies

Dear Colleagues,

Animal anatomy belongs to the basic sciences forming the background for studies in the clinical sciences. The aim of this Special Issue is to show the importance of equid morphology for the etiology, pathogenesis and treatment of diseases diagnosed in horses. Equid anatomical structures were well described in classical textbooks, but the veterinary imaging methods, such as X-ray, sonography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance, can highlight important structural details of exact organs and their locations in living animals. Moreover, the clinical procedures used in veterinary surgery, clinical examination, animal reproduction and animal hygiene can be linked with the morphology of animal body structures. The scope of this Special Issue incorporates the field of veterinary sciences dealing with animal care, health, prophylactics and treatment, especially the close relationship between basic and clinical sciences.
