Pathology of the Laboratory Rabbit

Pathology of the Laboratory Rabbit, 1st Edition, edited by Alys Bradley, provides a comprehensive reference on spontaneous background pathology observed in common laboratory rabbit strains. Published by Academic Press, this volume offers multi-author chapters arranged by organ system to support veterinary pathologists and researchers evaluating non-clinical safety assessment studies.

The volume systematically examines spontaneous background lesions across major organ systems, including the digestive system, liver, exocrine pancreas, urinary system, respiratory tract, and nervous system. Additional chapters cover infectious diseases, the heart and blood vessels, endocrine glands, skeletal muscle, bone and joints, skin, eyes, and reproductive systems across varied laboratory settings.

Color illustrations of common lesions accompany the descriptive text to support precise morphological identification during microscopic tissue evaluation. This publication provides a primary reference for veterinary toxicologic pathologists, diagnostic veterinary pathologists, research scientists, laboratory managers, technicians, zoo clinicians, and animal caretakers managing rabbit pathology data.
