The introduction of the Minimum Standard of Veterinary Education (MSVE) by the Veterinary Council of India (VCI) and the subsequent division of Veterinary Medicine into 'Veterinary Clinical Medicine' and 'Epidemiology and Preventive Medicine' has necessitated the development of a reader-friendly and concise book on Veterinary Clinical Medicine. This book has been designed to provide an accessible and concise textbook for students with a clinical interest.
